Map of the UK

The village and civil parish of Coningsby sits in the district of East Lindsey in Lincolnshire, England. Set on the characteristically flat fenland fringes beneath the rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds, it combines an agricultural landscape with a name of Norse origin often interpreted as “king’s farm”.

Much of the parish’s modern character is shaped by the neighbouring airbase, RAF Coningsby, home to front‑line Typhoon squadrons and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, which brings visitors and supports local services. The village retains a historic parish church, modest local shops and community groups, and an economy built around farming, service industries and businesses tied to the RAF presence.
