Millington is a small village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, set on the rolling chalk hills of the Yorkshire Wolds a few miles from Pocklington. The landscape of dry valleys, hedgerows and pasture makes it a pleasant spot for walkers and birdwatchers, and the lanes and stone cottages give the place a quietly picturesque, rural character.
Traditionally agricultural, the local economy remains centred on farms and small holdings, with some residents commuting to nearby towns. The community is small and close-knit, with historic roots visible in old farm buildings and the parish church, and the area is valued for its tranquillity, wildlife and access to classic Wolds scenery rather than for any large-scale industry or tourist development.
