Map of the UK

West Rounton is a small village and civil parish in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire, sited on the gentle lowlands of the Vale of Mowbray just a few miles from Northallerton. The settlement is typical of the area, with a compact cluster of stone cottages and farmsteads surrounded by arable fields and hedgerows, giving a distinctly rural feel.

Historically the village grew around agriculture and the landscape of nearby estates, and you can still find older buildings and a parish church that speak to that past. Today the local economy remains largely agricultural with some commuting to nearby towns, and community life is quiet and close‑knit, centred on village events and the church while being within easy reach of broader Yorkshire amenities and countryside attractions.
