Parish in East Riding of Yorkshire, England

Coordinates:54.045, -0.627
OS grid ref:SE 90 61

Fimber is a small village and civil parish tucked into the rolling chalk hills of the Yorkshire Wolds in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The surrounding landscape is largely agricultural and sparsely populated, popular with walkers and riders attracted by quiet country lanes and stretches of the long-distance Wolds Way.

Historically the settlement is modest but long-established, with traditional cottages and a small parish church at its heart; it once had a halt on the rural Malton and Driffield Railway before the line closed. Farming remains the mainstay of the local economy and community life is shaped by village events and connections with neighbouring market towns.
