Map of the UK

Farlesthorpe is a small, quietly rural parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. It comprises scattered farms and cottages set in an agricultural landscape, its name reflecting Norse influence (the common -thorpe suffix); the local economy remains largely centred on arable and livestock farming.

Despite its modest size, Farlesthorpe has a long, largely unwritten local history visible in old field patterns and a handful of historic buildings, and community life resembles that of many small Lincolnshire parishes with parish meetings and ties to nearby market towns; its quiet lanes and proximity to coastal and rural walking country make it popular for low‑key recreation rather than tourism.
