Moorland is a predominantly residential ward within the city of Lincoln, in Lincolnshire, England. It developed largely during the 20th century as suburban housing expanded out from the city centre and today contains a mix of council and private homes set around local green spaces and small shopping parades.
Community life in Moorland centres on schools, community centres and grassroots groups, and many residents commute into central Lincoln for work or study. The ward has been the focus of occasional regeneration projects to improve amenities and housing, and its mixed population gives it a strong local identity while remaining closely linked to the wider cultural and historic attractions of the city.
