History

Nearby places include Cracoe, Flasby, Rylstone, Threapland and Winterburn. Hetton was mentioned in the Domesday Book as belonging to Stuartcol (or Swartkoll) in 1066, but given to Roger de Poitou by 1086. The name means the farm on the heathland (from Old English hæth tun).

Hetton was historically part of the wapentake of Staincliffe East, and within the Skipton Rural District. For administrative purpose, it formed a township with Bordley in the ancient parish of Burnsall in the West Riding of Yorkshire. In the late 19th century it became a separate township, and it became a separate civil parish in 1866. It was transferred to the new county of North Yorkshire in 1974. The civil parish was abolished on 1 April 2012 and amalgamated with the parish of Bordley to form the new civil parish of "Hetton-cum-Bordley". From 1974 until 2023 it was in Craven district. The area is represented at Westminster as part of the Skipton and Ripon Constituency.

The village has a Methodist church, opened in 1859, but which closed in 2021 as a house of worship. Hetton is also home to The Angel Inn, which has been awarded a Michelin Star, and is also the only restaurant in North Yorkshire to have been awarded five AA rosettes for its food.

The Dales High Way, a long-distance path, runs through the village.
