Oughtershaw is a hamlet in the Yorkshire Dales, North Yorkshire, England. It lies on a road it shares with other small villages. Gayle, Deepdale, Yockenthwaite and Hubberholme. Contrary to popular belief the river running past Oughtershaw is not the Wharfe, it is in fact Oughtershaw Beck which runs down to Beckermonds and then merges with Greenfield Beck to source the River Wharfe at the Langstrothdale chase.
