Raywell is a hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, about seven miles north-west of Kingston upon Hull city centre and two miles north of Swanland.

The hamlet is found at the crossroads of Westfields Road and Riplingham Road, which link Riplingham (South Cave), Eppleworth (Cottingham) and Kirk Ella. It consists of a farm and an old manor house.

The hamley is noted as a local Scout/Girl guides site.[1] Locally it is also noted because of a number of walks that start there.
