Wilberfoss is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, situated roughly eight miles east of York on gently undulating arable land. The settlement retains a compact historic core of stone and brick houses clustered around a parish church with medieval origins and a small village green, giving it a very rural Yorkshire character.

Local life mixes traditional agriculture with a large commuter element for nearby towns, and the village supports a primary school, village hall, pubs and a handful of small businesses. Community organisations, seasonal fetes and interest in listed buildings and conservation keep the social calendar active, while good road links make it a popular base for those working in York and the surrounding area.
