Winestead Drain is a small river in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. The river flows south from Withernsea, around Patrington, before turning eastwards towards the Humber Estuary. The river was noted for being an inland waterway bringing shipping to the lower Humber reaches, though the river is now not navigable. Historically the river emptied into the North Channel of the Humber just south of Patrington Haven. However, due to human intervention for drainage and flood prevention, the North Channel was cut off at the western end, and the installation of a sluice gate stopped the natural scouring of the channel by incoming and outgoing tides. This allowed the river to silt up making it unusable for watercraft.
