About

The Eggborough, Kellington & Smeaton area lies in the Selby district, characterised by flat, open farmland intersected by drainage ditches and the River Aire. The landscape is dominated by large arable fields and the now-decommissioned Eggborough Power Station, a prominent industrial landmark on the skyline. The settlements themselves are small, linear villages with a mix of traditional brick housing and more modern developments, serving primarily residential and agricultural functions.

Community life centres around local pubs, village halls, and the parish churches, such as the medieval St. Edmund's in Kellington. The area is defined by its position within the Humberhead Levels, a vast, low-lying plain. A network of quiet country lanes and public footpaths, including routes along former railway lines, connects the villages and provides access to the surrounding agricultural land and river corridors.
