Kirklington with Upsland (#17 on map) or Kirklington cum Upsland is a civil parish in the Hambleton District of North Yorkshire. The main settlement is Kirklington. Upsland is a single farm in the southwest of the parish.

Kirklington cum Upsland was historically a township in the ancient parish of Kirklington in the North Riding of Yorkshire. It became a separate civil parish in 1866. From 1894 it formed an urban district, but in 1934 (with a reducing population) the urban district was abolished and merged with Bedale Rural District. In 1974 the parish was transferred to the Hambleton District in the new county of North Yorkshire. Since 1978 it has shared a grouped parish council, Kirklington with Sutton Howgrave, including the former parishes of Howgrave (#14) and Sutton with Howgrave (#23).

The population of the parish in the 2001 UK Census was 277, 315 in the 2011 census and estimated by the Hambleton District administration to be 220 in 2014.

Kirklington was a large ancient parish, with an area of 4,164 acres (1,685 hectares). Until the 19th century it included the townships of Kirklington with Upsland, Howgrave, Sutton Howgrave and East Tanfield (#9), all of which became separate civil parishes in 1866.
