Lissett is a village in the Holderness area of Yorkshire East Riding, south of Bridlington and east of Hull.

In 1942 an RAF station, RAF Lissett was built there. Its main role was to serve as a base for the Halifax Bomber 158 Squadron. It had a short life - the final mission left the airbase on April 25, 1945. The airbase is now part of a small industrial estate in the village.

The village church, St James, also houses the oldest dated bell in England, dated 1254.
