Fotherby is a small village and civil parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set on the edge of the rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds and close to the market town of Louth. The landscape is defined by farmland, hedgerows and quiet lanes, so agriculture remains an important part of the local economy while the area also attracts walkers exploring the Wolds and visitors heading for the nearby east coast.
The village has a long history visible in its older buildings and parish church, and community life is typically centred on local events and relying on nearby Louth for shops, schools and services. Its mix of historic character, rural economy and proximity to larger towns and the coast gives it the quiet, resilient feel common to small Lincolnshire villages.
