About

Barlby & Riccall ward lies in the flat, agricultural landscape of the Vale of York, primarily comprising the two large villages of Barlby and Riccall along with several smaller settlements. The area is defined by its proximity to the River Ouse, with Riccall in particular historically serving as a key landing point. Land use is largely rural, with arable farming dominating the surrounding fields, and the villages function as residential communities for nearby Selby and beyond.

A notable feature is the Selby Canal, which runs through the ward, connecting the River Ouse to the Aire and Calder Navigation. The villages retain a sense of their long history, with Riccall's village green and St Mary's Church marking its centre. The ward's character is shaped by this blend of quiet village life, historical transport routes, and its productive agricultural setting within the wider Selby district.
