Rimswell is a village and civil parish in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, in an area known as Holderness. It is situated approximately north-west of Withernsea and it lies between the B1243 and B1362 roads. thumb|left|White House Farm, Rimswell The civil parish is formed by the village of Rimswell and the hamlet of Waxholme.

The name Rimswell possibly derives from the Old English Rymiswella meaning 'Rymi's spring'. Alternatively, the first element could be derived from the Old Norse personal name Hrimr, and the second element could be the Old English swelle, referring to a 'swelling in the land'.
