Hemingbrough is a village and civil parish in North Yorkshire, England, set on the low-lying floodplain of the River Ouse a few miles from Selby and within easy reach of York. Its riverside location gave it a modest river‑port character in the past and the surrounding flat, agricultural landscape makes it a focus for farming, riverside walks and occasional flood management concerns.
The village still bears clear medieval traces: the parish church of St Mary the Virgin and the remains of Hemingbrough Priory speak to a long local history. Today Hemingbrough combines farming with commuter living and local services - a primary school, pubs and community events - so it feels both traditionally rural and connected to nearby towns.
