Skelton-on-Ure is a small rural village on low-lying ground in the Vale of York. Traditional farmhouses and cottages dominate, some dating back centuries with brick and pantile details.
Proximity to the River Ure means lower-lying land and surrounding fields can be damp-prone. Guttering, roofing and external render help keep moisture away from older walls.
