Marton cum Grafton is a civil parish in the Borough of Harrogate of North Yorkshire, England.
The parish has only two settlements (Marton and Grafton), and has a magnesian limestone and sandstone geography, which has been used for quarrying.
The landform is broadly flat, though there are some small hills with the Marton and Grafton being separated by 98 feet (30 m) despite being only 0.5 miles (0.8 km) apart.
However, quarrying and the installation of allotments and modern day structures, led to the site being de-scheduled as an ancient monument.
[13] Besides agriculture, the other major source of employment in the area has been quarrying, with gravel pits still in evidence across the parish.
[17][18][19][20] The original church in the parish was located some 0.5 miles (0.8 km) south of the village of Marton.
