This article is about an area of England. For the former county, see Cleveland (county). For other Clevelands, see Cleveland (disambiguation).

The area corresponds to the former Langbaurgh Wapentake. The North York Moors national park, established in 1952, covers part of it. A non-metropolitan county under the same name existed from 1974 to 1996 and there is ambiguity today between that county and the historic extent of the name.
