Linton is a village and civil parish in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, England. It is to the immediate south, and across the River Wharfe, from  Grassington, near Threshfield and eight miles north of the market town Skipton. The green of this small, picturesque village is set among a fine Vanbrugh almshouse, a pub and three stone bridges over its beck. Not far to its north-east, Linton makes a second impressive appearance, where Linton Beck runs down to the River Wharfe at the limestone Linton Falls, there bridged for walkers on a path up the Wharfe's north bank to Grassington.
