The landscape is characterised by flat, agricultural land typical of the Vale of York, with the ward lying close to the former Selby coalfield. The area has a long history as an important ecclesiastical centre.

The village is a local service hub with amenities centred along its main streets. Historically, it was home to a medieval hospital and a palace for the Archbishops of York, remnants of which can be seen.
