Weaverthorpe is a small village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, set on the rolling chalk of the Yorkshire Wolds. It sits in a largely agricultural landscape of arable fields and hedged lanes, a short drive from market towns such as Malton and within easy reach of the coast, which makes it popular with walkers and country visitors.
The village has medieval roots reflected in its historic parish church and a number of older cottages, and the local economy remains largely farming-based with some residents commuting to nearby towns. Community life is typically rural, centred on a village hall, occasional fetes and clubs, while the surrounding countryside offers good opportunities for heritage visits and outdoor pursuits.
