About

Filey ward encompasses the coastal town of Filey and its immediate rural surroundings on the North Yorkshire coast. The area is defined by Filey Bay, a broad, sweeping curve of beach backed by cliffs. The town itself has a traditional seafront with gardens and a promenade. Inland, the ward includes agricultural land and the small village of Hunmanby, which lies just to the west.

A notable local feature is Filey Brigg, a long, narrow peninsula of rock stretching into the North Sea, forming a natural breakwater. The ward contains the Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park, and the country park at Primrose Valley. The rural parts are characterised by fields and the rolling topography typical of the Yorkshire Wolds foothills.
