About

Norton ward encompasses a largely rural area on the northern outskirts of the town of Norton-on-Derwent, situated within the Ryedale district. The landscape is characterised by open farmland and scattered settlements, with the River Derwent forming a significant part of its western boundary. This agricultural character defines much of the ward's land use and community structure.

The area includes the distinct village of Norton-le-Clay, which maintains its own identity separate from the larger town. A notable local feature is the historic St. Mary's Church in Norton-le-Clay, with sections of the building dating back to the Norman period. The ward's proximity to the A1(M) motorway provides a key transport link, influencing connectivity for its residents and businesses.
