Historically in the West Riding of Yorkshire, Goole is the furthest inland port in the United Kingdom, and is one of the busiest ports on the East Coast of England. The Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway accelerated the development of the port of Goole, primarily for coal exports. Much of its historic trade was with Scandinavian and Baltic countries, notably for the import of pit props. Goole remains busy with North Sea trade, throughput averaging some 2 million t/a.
