Laverton is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England, about 7 miles west of Ripon. The population of this parish as taken at the 2011 census was 260.[1] The River Laver, from which the village takes its name, flows through the village. The parish includes the area of Dallowgill west of the village of Laverton.

Historically Laverton was a township in the ancient parish of Kirkby Malzeard in the West Riding of Yorkshire.[2] It became a separate civil parish in 1866, and was transferred from the West Riding to North Yorkshire in 1974. The parish now shares a parish council with Kirkby Malzeard (Kirkby Malzeard, Laverton and Dallowgill Parish Council).
