Skendleby is a small, quiet rural parish in the district of East Lindsey, in Lincolnshire, England. It sits amid the county’s gently rolling arable countryside and is made up of a handful of houses, farms and lanes rather than a dense village centre, giving it a very tranquil, agricultural character.

Locally the economy and landscape are dominated by farming, and the parish has roots stretching back many centuries so there are traces of older settlement and traditional buildings in the area. Visitors and local historians often note a modest wartime presence in the locality - remnants of radar and military activity nearby - and the community retains the close‑knit, event‑centred social life typical of small Lincolnshire parishes.
