Wawne is a small village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, situated a few miles north‑east of Hull beside the meandering River Hull. Its riverside setting and surrounding farmland give it a quietly rural feel despite the short commute into the city, and there are nearby crossings linking it to Sutton-on-Hull and the suburban fringes of Hull.
Historically the village has a long pedigree and retains a compact, village‑community atmosphere with a mix of agricultural roots and modern commuters; its scenic river walks and period buildings are popular with locals and visitors alike. The local economy is mainly residential with farming in the hinterland, while community events and conservation of the riverside character feature in village life.
