1. Kellington

   Kellington is a small village and civil parish in the Selby District of North Yorkshire, England, on the banks of the River Aire. Situated almost equidistant between the towns of Pontefract and Selby, the village dates back to at least the 11th century when it was listed in the Domesday 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. Due to its location at the southernmost tip of North Yorkshire, the village is close to the borders of West, East and South Yorkshire. Its proximity to both the A19 and M62 major roads has resulted in a steady population growth, although to a lesser extent than its neighbour, Eggborough. The low-lying ground that separates the village from the River Aire has given rise to a history of flooding the surrounding farmland, most recently in 2000. The Selby District Councillors for the village are local husband and wife team, John and Mary McCartney. John is also the North Yorkshire County Councillor for the division of Osgoldcross, which includes Kellington. In 2008 the continuation of Kellington as a separate village was put at risk because of a proposal to turn it, along with neighbouring Beal and Eggborough, into a new town, under a scheme being promoted by the then Labour government of building so-called eco-towns around the country. This specific proposal was put in by a Leeds-based developer, GMI. Led by John and Mary McCartney all three villages rose up in anger. Using imaginative media stunts, innovative campaigning, sending thousands of emails and letters to decision makers and local and regional newspapers, lobbying those decision makers and attracting TV coverage the villagers were within a year successful.
