in the heart of Hambleton
Farlington is a small, picturesque farming village in the Hambleton district of North Yorkshire.
The village has a 12th century church, St. Leonards, a good pub, the Blacksmith’s Arms, and has a small stream, Farlington Beck running through it.
Farlington is ideally situated for a walk in the Hambleton Hills, a visit to Castle Howard, a day out in the historic city of York, or the market town of Malton.

We have recently seen a spike in rural crime in the Hambleton area particularly at the north of the county around Great Ayton and Stokesley.
Farming equipment, tools, machinery, off-road bikes, quad bikes and vehicles are being targeted. These have mainly been taken from outbuildings of farms and rural properties.
