Malton, North Yorkshire

Malton is a market town, civil parish and electoral ward in North Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the North Riding of Yorkshire, the town is the location of the offices of Ryedale District Council.

 

It is located to the north of the River Derwent which forms the historic boundary between the North and East Ridings of Yorkshire.

 

Facing Malton on the other side of the Derwent is Norton. The Karro Food Group (formerly known as Malton Bacon Factory), Malton bus station and Malton railway station are located in Norton-on-Derwent.

 

Malton is the local area's commercial and retail centre. In the town centre there are small traditional independent shops and high street names. The market place has recently become a meeting area with a number of coffee bars and cafés opening all day to complement the public houses.

 

Malton was voted one of the best places to live in Britain by The Sunday Times in both the 2017 and 2018 lists.
