Scrivelsby is a small, quiet parish in rural East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set among the gentle fields and hedgerows that lead towards the rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds. It lies close to the market town of Horncastle and is characterised by a sparsely settled, agricultural landscape with a handful of farmsteads and lanes rather than a bustling village centre.
The parish is best known for its historic manor, Scrivelsby Court, and the long association with the Dymoke family, historically recognised as the monarch’s hereditary King’s Champion - an intriguing ceremonial link to coronations that draws interest beyond the immediate locality. Socially and economically the area remains largely farming-focused, with a small, close-knit community and occasional visitors attracted by the historic house, parkland and the peaceful Wolds countryside.
