About Sleights
- Sleights is one of the larger villages in the Esk Valley, with a range of local shops, a primary school, and community facilities that make it a self-sufficient community. The village is a popular residential base for those who work in Whitby, and the Esk Valley Railway provides a direct rail connection to the town.
- Falling Foss, a waterfall in a wooded gorge a few miles south of Sleights, is one of the finest in the North York Moors. The waterfall is reached by a walk through ancient woodland and is at its most impressive after heavy rain. The gorge is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and is one of the most popular walking destinations in the area.
- The Esk Valley between Sleights and Whitby is one of the most beautiful stretches of the river, with the valley sides covered in ancient woodland and the river running through a series of pools and rapids. The Esk Valley Walk long-distance footpath follows the river from Castleton to Whitby, and the stretch between Sleights and Whitby is one of the finest.
- Sleights has a strong community identity, with active residents' associations and community groups. The village has its own primary school, a church, and a range of local facilities, and the community has maintained its sense of place despite the growth of Whitby as a tourist destination.
