Acaster Malbis is a small village on the east bank of the River Ouse, about four miles south of York in England. Its name recalls the Norman de Malbis family who held the manor after the Conquest, and the settlement still shows a historic, rural character in its parish church, stone cottages and the footprints of old manorial land.
Today Acaster Malbis is a quiet mix of agriculture and commuter life for people working in York, popular with walkers and birdwatchers for its riverside paths and open countryside; village life is small-scale and community-minded, with local amenities and occasional events keeping a close-knit social feel.
