Barkston Ash is a small village and civil parish close to Selby in North Yorkshire, England. It was formerly known as Barkston in the West Riding of Yorkshire.
The village dates back to at least 1090, when it was spelled Barcestone. Now part of Selby district, the village previously gave its name to the former wapentake of Barkston Ash. The Ash part of the name comes from a large ash tree said to be at the approximate centre of the ancient county of Yorkshire, where meetings for the wapentake would be held.
