About

Ouseburn ward covers a largely rural expanse in North Yorkshire, centered around the villages of Brandsby and Whenby. The landscape is characterised by rolling farmland, wooded valleys, and the meandering course of the Ouse Burn stream from which it takes its name. This is an agricultural area with a scattered population, where historic stone-built farmsteads and hamlets are key features of the setting.

The area includes the grounds of the historic Newburgh Priory estate. A notable local landmark is the prominent hill of Yearsley Cross, which offers broad views across the Howardian Hills. The ward's community life is focused within its small villages, which contain traditional amenities like parish churches and village halls, maintaining a quiet, pastoral character distinct from the region's busier market towns.
