Beverley Rural

About

Beverley Rural ward encompasses a large area of countryside and villages to the west and south of the market town of Beverley. The landscape is predominantly agricultural, featuring arable fields and pastureland. Settlements include the villages of Woodmansey, Molescroft, and Walkington, each with their own local character. The ward is defined by the River Hull, which flows northwards through the area, and the Beverley and Bervale chalk stream, a rare and important habitat.

The area is traversed by the A164 and A1079 roads, linking its communities. Land use is primarily farming, with some equestrian centres and small-scale rural enterprises. The Westwood, a large area of common pastureland where cattle graze freely under ancient rights, lies on the ward's eastern fringe. This creates a distinctive blend of working farmland and historic common land, shaping the local environment and community activities.
