About

The ward encompasses several villages along the lower River Aire and its junction with the Ouse. The landscape is largely flat, agricultural land, with a network of drainage ditches and flood embankments defining the area. Snaith serves as the main settlement, with a historic market town character. The surrounding parishes of Airmyn, Rawcliffe, and the Marshland hamlets are more rural, characterised by farming and riverside locations.

The area's identity is strongly tied to the rivers, which have historically influenced both its economy and its vulnerability to flooding. The New Junction Canal cuts through the western edge, linking the Aire and Calder Navigation to the River Don. A notable local feature is the distinctive, traditionally painted black and white Snaith School, a prominent landmark within the town. Transport routes, including the A645 and railway line, follow the raised ground above the floodplain.
