Seven miles East of Goole lies Adlingfleet a village in Yorkshire's East Riding. Surrounded by low lying flatlands, Adlingfleet is a small village set amidst beautiful natural scenery, much of which is protected and managed by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.

Adlingfleet covers about 5,000 acres of land close to the merging of the River Ouse and the River Trent. The land was drained circa 1764 by works originally drawn up by John Smeaton, a civil engineer. The drainage of the land allowed for different fauna and flora to thrive there. Some of the surrounding landscape makes up the largest tidal reed bed in the country; an area abundant with wildlife, in particular, wetland birds.

In the Domesday Book the village was known as Adelingesfluet and it had been managed by Lord Siward Barn until the Norman Conquest. After the conquest the village was passed into the hands of Lord Geoffrey de la Guerche.
