About  Us 
 
The village of Walkington is in the East Riding of Yorkshire in England.  We are close to the ancient market town of Beverley and the city of Hull.
 
 The area is a perfect base from which to explore the East coast, the North York moors, the Wolds and the historic city of York.

Walkington History
 
Reference to the sign by the village pond gives a hint of the history of Walkington and mentions its reference in Domesday.
(The sign was removed during renovation work. Hopefully it will soon be replaced.)

What else do we know about our village and its origins? See the History section to find out. 
As further items of information become available they will be added to this website.

 
The photograph above shows the pond without the barrier and boardwalk as it looked about 60 years ago, click on the image for a larger view.
Do you have photographs of old Walkington that would be of interest to others? If so let us know and we will include some of them here.
