Canwick is a small village and civil parish in North Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, lying just to the south‑east of the city of Lincoln. It occupies gentle farmland on the edge of the Witham valley and feels distinctly rural despite its proximity to the city, with a low‑density pattern of houses, hedged fields and lanes.

The parish has a long history reflected in a medieval parish church and several listed buildings, including the country house known as Canwick Hall, and attracts local walkers and history enthusiasts. Economically it remains largely agricultural and residential, with many residents commuting into Lincoln while village life centres on a small, close‑knit community and the surrounding countryside beside the River Witham.
