Belchford is a small village and civil parish in the district of East Lindsey, in the county of Lincolnshire, England. It sits on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, among rolling chalk hills with fine views across the countryside, and is a few miles north‑east of Horncastle and south‑west of Louth.
Historically an agricultural settlement with medieval roots, Belchford retains traditional stone cottages, a village pub and a community spirit; farming still dominates the local economy while walking, cycling and rural tourism bring visitors to the Wolds. Its quiet character and proximity to other Wolds villages make it a good example of rural life in Lincolnshire administered from East Lindsey.
