Map of the UK

The village and civil parish of Yearsley sits in rural North Yorkshire, tucked against the rolling slopes of the Howardian Hills. It is a small, scattered settlement of traditional stone cottages, farmsteads and pockets of woodland, valued for its peaceful character and access to quiet country walks rather than for any large commercial centre.

Yearsley has long rural roots and an economy still shaped largely by agriculture and estate land, with a modest number of listed buildings and historic lanes that hint at its past. The community is small and close‑knit, and while not a mainstream visitor destination its tranquillity and proximity to the city of York make it representative of North Yorkshire’s quieter countryside parishes.
