Fishtoft is a small fenland parish on the eastern edge of Boston in Lincolnshire, set on low-lying reclaimed ground close to The Wash. The landscape is characteristically flat, criss-crossed by drains and sea banks, and the place name hints at early settlement patterns in this part of the Fens.
Traditionally agricultural, the parish retains a strong farming character while many residents commute to nearby Boston or work in the wider Lincolnshire economy. A historic parish church and a tight-knit village community sit alongside interests in coastal and wetland wildlife, reflecting both the area’s heritage and its links to the river and sea.
