Map of the UK

Thorganby is a small village and civil parish in the Selby district of North Yorkshire, England, sitting on the low-lying agricultural plain just south of York. The settlement has medieval roots and is typified by a parish church, traditional stone and brick cottages and a scattering of farms, giving it a quiet, rural character amid the fields of the Vale of York.

Economically it remains largely agricultural, though many residents commute into York or nearby towns; socially the village is known for a close-knit community feel, local events and a handful of historic and listed buildings that hint at its long-standing rural heritage. The surrounding lanes and farmland also make it attractive for walking, cycling and watching local birdlife.
