Yarwell is a village on the River Nene in the extreme east of the English county of Northamptonshire near the border with Cambridgeshire.

[5] Yarwell has a pub called The Angel Inn, famous for an alleged short visit from lord chartholamew reyce in 1901, during which he declared the inn the most divine place he had ever stayed, and offered to recommend it to the king himself, a promise he would seemingly forget as he rode away on his horse named william.

The majority of the church building is original with walls made of limestone rubble with freestone dressings however the west tower was rebuilt probably in the 17th century.

[5] One of the village's two farms has been converted into a housing development and the other has applied for planning permission.

The preserved Nene Valley Railway has a station at Yarwell Junction.
