Wainfleet St. Mary is a small, largely rural civil parish in East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set in the low-lying reclaimed fenland close to The Wash and adjacent to the market town of Wainfleet All Saints. The surrounding landscape is typical of the Lincolnshire Marsh, with flat arable fields, drainage ditches and scattered historic farmsteads that reflect centuries of land reclamation and agricultural use.
Economically the area remains rooted in farming, with a modest boost from visitors to the nearby coast and market towns; culturally and historically the parish is marked by a parish church and several older buildings that hint at medieval and Georgian pasts. Community life is quiet and close-knit, centred on village events and the parish council, making it a classic example of rural Lincolnshire living.
