West Haddlesey is a small village and civil parish in the district of Selby, tucked into the low-lying agricultural landscape of the Vale of York in North Yorkshire, England. It sits close to the River Aire and adjacent to the hamlet of East Haddlesey, giving the area a strong river‑meadow character shaped by drainage and flood management.
With a modest population, the local economy is dominated by arable and livestock farming and village life tends to be centred on community facilities and local events. The settlement has historic roots reaching back centuries, and its character is a quiet mix of rural heritage, riverside landscape and links to nearby market towns such as Selby.
