Maidenwell is a small, predominantly rural civil parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set on the rolling chalk hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The parish is characterised by hedged arable fields, pasture, narrow lanes and scattered farmsteads, making it a quiet spot popular with walkers and wildlife watchers.
Like many small Wolds parishes, Maidenwell has medieval roots - its name hints at an origin around a spring or holy well - and it preserves historic field patterns, cottages and former agricultural buildings. With a very small population, community life tends to revolve around neighbouring market towns and farming, while modest rural tourism and local heritage interest contribute to its character.
