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.
