About Riccall

Riccall, a village in North Yorkshire, carries the quiet dignity of a place long settled by the Ouse. It lies 5.6 km north of Selby (from Selby: bearing 7°T, OS grid SE 619 378), and is situated east of Kelfield village. The land around Riccall, a gentle expanse of fertile soil, has for centuries been shaped by the river's embrace, its fields often holding the soft, diffused light that settles like a blessing upon the landscape. Evidence of its ancient past is whispered by the very earth, hinting at a history stretching back to the Anglo-Saxons, and a name that echoes with the passage of time. The village church, St. Mary's, stands as a quiet sentinel, its stones bearing witness to generations of life and faith. Today, Riccall continues its unhurried existence, a place where the broad skies of Yorkshire meet the patient flow of the river.
