Long Riston is a small rural village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, set in the arable countryside of Holderness. It has the feel of a classic linear village, with traditional cottages and farmsteads clustered along a main road and is within easy reach of the North Sea coast and larger centres such as Hull and Beverley, so many residents commute while enjoying a quieter rural life.

Locally the economy is largely agricultural with a handful of small businesses and a community drawn together by a village hall and parish activities; the area’s long history is visible in older buildings and field patterns rather than grand monuments, and it’s valued for its open landscapes, local events and proximity to coastal and market-town amenities.
