Humbleton is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, in an area known as Holderness. It is situated approximately north-east of Hull city centre.

==Overview== The origin of the name Humbleton is uncertain. The second element of the name derives from the Old English tūn meaning 'settlement'. The origin of the first element has many theories. It may derive from the Old English humol or the Old Norse humul meaning 'rounded hill', humele or humli meaning 'hops' (the plant), or perhaps from the Old Norse personal name Humli.
