Legbourne is a small village and civil parish in the district of East Lindsey, in rural Lincolnshire, England, lying a couple of miles from the market town of Louth on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The setting of rolling chalk hills and farmland gives it a distinctly rural character and makes it popular with walkers exploring the Wolds.
Locally the community is small and village life revolves around a parish church, village hall and occasional events; agriculture remains important but many residents commute to nearby towns. The village was historically linked to the wider region by a nearby railway station that closed in the mid‑20th century, and its mix of stone cottages and farmsteads hints at a long local history.
