Goodmanham is a small village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, tucked into the gentle chalk landscape of the Yorkshire Wolds and a short distance from Market Weighton. The surrounding countryside is largely agricultural, with rolling arable fields and pasture, and the village has a quiet, rural character popular with walkers exploring local lanes and public rights of way.
The village is best known for its early medieval associations: Bede records a pagan shrine here and the conversion of the locals during the reign of King Edwin, and the parish church of St Helen's Church stands on what was long regarded as a sacred site. Today Goodmanham combines historic buildings and a close-knit community, with agriculture still central to the local economy and many residents commuting to nearby towns for work and services.
