Friskney is a largely rural ward in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, centred on a small village and the surrounding farmland and reclaimed fenland. The landscape is low-lying, with a coastal influence from nearby salt marshes and estuarine habitats that attract birdlife and give the area a mix of agricultural and seaside character.
Locally the economy is dominated by farming, with some small-scale tourism and residents who commute to larger towns. The ward retains a strong sense of community around its historic parish church, village organisations and occasional local events; traditional cottages, farmhouses and drainage history hint at its long rural past.
