The village and civil parish of Lockington sits in the rolling chalk country of the Yorkshire Wolds in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is a small, mainly agricultural community surrounded by arable fields and winding lanes, with a historic parish church and a number of traditional stone and brick houses that hint at medieval and post‑medieval origins.
The local economy remains largely farming‑based, though many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Beverley and Market Weighton. Social life is typical of a rural parish, centred on village gatherings, church and village hall activities, and the easy access to walking country and quiet lanes that characterise this part of the Wolds.
