Grimoldby is a small village and civil parish in the district of East Lindsey in Lincolnshire, England, sitting on the southern edge of the rolling Lincolnshire Wolds and close to the market town of Alford. Its name, ending in -by, points to Old Norse roots and a long rural history tied to agriculture and the pattern of small villages that characterise this part of the county.
The community retains a village feel with traditional cottages, a parish church of medieval origin and local amenities such as a village hall, school and pub that anchor social life; the local economy remains largely agricultural, augmented by small businesses, commuters to nearby towns and seasonal visitors using the Wolds and nearby coast for walking and tourism.
