West Haddlesey is a village and civil parish in the Selby District of North Yorkshire, England.[2] In the 2011 census, it had about 78 houses and a population of 214.[1] The mouth of the Selby Canal lies to the south of the village and joins onto the River Aire.
The village was historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire until 1974.[3]
The village formally had a public house called the George and Dragon Inn, however it was closed due to a 'deliberate' fire in March 2019.[4] It has now been converted into an Indian restaurant.[5] The village shares a primary school with the neighbouring village of Chapel Haddlesey.[6]
