High Hunsley is a small hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. It is situated in the Yorkshire Wolds approximately 6 miles (10 km) south-west of Beverley town centre and 2 miles (3 km) north-west of the village of Little Weighton.
High Hunsley forms part of the civil parish of Rowley. It is situated on the B1230 road and the Yorkshire Wolds Way passes close to the west.
In 1823 Hunsley (then both High and Low), was in the civil parish of Rowley and the Wapentake of Harthill. Occupations at the time included two farmers, a corn factor (trader), a yeoman, and a gentlewoman.[1]
