Pocklington is the largest settlement and, at this time, growing quickly in size. This busy market town will soon exceed 10,000 inhabitants. Recent archaeological finds confirm that this was an important site in the Iron Age and Roman times.

All Saints Pocklington has ancient roots and is a hub of activity for the local and wider community.

The six village churches are important centres for meeting and worship. They are set in, or at the foot of, The Yorkshire Wolds. This stunning countryside is a much loved and well kept secret; David Hockney has been known to set up his easel nearby.
