North Thoresby is a small village and civil parish in the district of East Lindsey, in Lincolnshire, England, sitting on the edge of the gently rolling countryside of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Its position between market towns such as Louth and the larger coastal conurbation around Grimsby means the surrounding landscape of chalk hills and farmland remains important for walking and agriculture while many residents commute for work or services.
The village has a long history reflected in its Old Norse name and a medieval parish church, and retains a compact social life centred on a village hall, a pub and local clubs. Economically it is still rooted in farming with a mix of small businesses and rural livelihoods, and there is local interest in heritage - including the legacy of the former East Lincolnshire railway line - alongside regular community events that keep village life active.
