Sandholme is a hamlet in the East Riding of Yorkshire, eight miles west of Brough and seven miles north-east of Goole, just to the north of the M62 motorway.
The hamlet was previously served by Sandholme railway station on the Hull and Barnsley Line before it was decommissioned in 1955.[1] The station house stood until 2012, when it was demolished after being destroyed by fire.[2]
