Hogsthorpe is a small village and civil parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set a couple of miles inland from the east coast between Skegness and Alford. The settlement sits amid flat coastal farmland with views towards the sand dunes and the rolling countryside of the Lincolnshire Wolds, and its name - with the Norse element "thorpe" - hints at Viking‑era origins.
Today the village retains a quiet, rural character: agriculture remains important, while many residents commute to nearby seaside towns or work in local services. A parish church and village hall help sustain community life, and the closeness to the coast brings some holiday accommodation and day visitors, so Hogsthorpe mixes farming heritage with a modest seaside visitor economy.
