Welcome to Kellington
CLICK FOR 2021 CENSUS DATAIntroduction
Kellington is a small village in the Selby district of North Yorkshire with a population of 911 (2011 census). It sits on the banks of the River Aire midway between the towns of Selby and Pontefract. The village dates back to at least the 11th century when it was listed in the Doomsday Book as ‘Chelinctone’. The semi-rural community grew in size with the advent of local mining as housing was built to accommodate the workers of nearby Kellingley Colliery. The colliery closed in December 2015 after producing coal for fifty years and it was the last deep mine in the country.
