Lawkland is a civil parish in the Craven district of North Yorkshire, England, near the A65 and 4 miles (6.4 km) west of Settle. It lies within the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty but was not part of the ancient Forest or the Lordship of Bowland. There is no Lawkland village as such although there are clusters of farms and dwellings around Lawkland Green and Eldroth.
