Exelby, Leeming and Londonderry (formerly Exelby, Leeming and Newton) is a civil parish in the Hambleton District of North Yorkshire, England.[2][3] It contains three villages – Exelby, Leeming and Londonderry[4] – and RAF Leeming Royal Air Force station. The population of the civil parish as of the 2011 census was 2,788.[1] The parish was renamed because it was felt that "Newton" was not recognised while Londonderry was, being a hamlet.[5]
