About

South Hunsley ward encompasses a predominantly rural area in the East Riding of Yorkshire, characterised by a series of small villages and hamlets set within agricultural land. The settlements, including North Cave, South Cave, and Ellerker, are linked by quiet country lanes. The landscape is defined by open fields and gentle topography, with the western boundary following the course of the River Foulness.

The area includes the Humber estuary foreshore, with expansive views across the mudflats and marshes towards the Lincolnshire coast. The historic Market Weighton Canal, now largely dormant, runs through the ward. Local community life is focused around village halls and the primary schools serving each main settlement, with commuting to larger towns like Hull and Howden being common for work.
