It is situated 5 [[mile]]s west of [[Market Weighton]] town centre and 4 [[mile]]s south of [[Pocklington]] town centre. It forms part of the [[civil parish]] of [[Everingham and Harswell]]. [[Image:St Everilda's Church, Everingham.jpg|thumb|left|St Everilda's Church (Church of England), photograph by Stuart and Fiona Jackson.]] It has two [[church]]es, both dedicated to St. [[Everilda]], a [[7th century]] [[saint]] who founded a [[convent]] here: St. Everilda's ([[Church of England]]) and [[Ss Mary & Everilda, Everingham]], ([[Roman Catholic]]). There is only one other church in [[United Kingdom|Britain]] dedicated to this saint, at [[Nether Poppleton]], [[City of York]]. The [[Ham class minesweeper]] [[HMS Everingham]] was named after the village. The village once had four pubs, which were forced to close by Lady Everingham in the 17th century. She was disgusted that her carriage driver was drunk when he came to collect her and ordered these closures. [[Category:Villages in the East Riding of Yorkshire]] {{EastRiding-geo-stub}}
