Aike

At one time Aike was an island. The building of flood defences on the river Hull and draining of land for agricultural reasons made the village readily accessible. In the nineteenth century Aike had a church, chapel, pub and a school. The latter was closed in 1904 and the children taken to Lockington by wagonette each day. This would be a journey of about an hour. The activities of Simon and Laura Fry at Aike Stud have put the village on the equestrian map in the 21st century. They attract dressage competitors from across the country.
