About

Driffield East & Nafferton covers the eastern side of Driffield together with the village of Nafferton and the surrounding farmland on the northern edge of the East Riding. The area sits at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds and consists largely of arable fields, hedgerows and small woodland pockets. Driffield provides shops, community facilities and a town centre that serves local farms and villages, while Nafferton remains a compact settlement with a village green and lanes linking to nearby farmsteads and cottages.

Rail and local events shape daily life: Nafferton railway station sits on the Hull–Scarborough line, offering a rail link for commuters and students, and the Driffield Showground hosts the annual agricultural show that draws farmers and traders from the surrounding parishes. Community halls, playing fields and parish events provide meeting points, and the pattern of smallholdings and larger arable farms defines land use and local economy across the ward.
