Risplith is a village in the civil parish of Sawley, in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is about 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Ripon on the B6265 road to Pateley Bridge.[1] The name is believed to derive from Old Norse of slope overgrown with brushwood.[2]

The hamlet was previously in the Wapentake of Claro.[3][4] An ice-cream manufacturer works in the village with a shop and restaurant where passers-by can stop and watch ice-cream being made. In 2018, it was named as one of Britain's best ice-cream parlours by The Daily Telegraph.[5]

Transport to Ripon and Harrogate is provided by the three times daily bus service (each way).[6]
