Saxton North Yorkshire Map

About Saxton

Saxton rests in the gentle embrace of North Yorkshire's countryside. It lies 6.7 km south of Tadcaster (from Tadcaster: bearing 188°T, OS grid SE 476 368), and is situated west of Scarthingwell village. The fields surrounding Saxton, often rippling with the gold of ripening wheat or the deep green of summer pastures, possess a quiet, enduring beauty, bathed in the soft, diffused light characteristic of this region. Evidence of its agricultural heritage is readily apparent, with farmsteads dotting the landscape, their stone walls weathered by countless seasons. The air here carries the faint, earthy scent of cultivated land, a constant reminder of the generations who have worked this soil. Saxton itself, a cluster of brick and stone dwellings, offers a peaceful haven, its lanes often quiet save for the murmur of the wind through the trees.
