Coleby is a small village and civil parish in the district of North Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, perched on the ridge of the Lincoln Cliff with sweeping views over the valley of the River Witham. It has medieval origins and retains a compact core of stone cottages and a historic church, reflecting its long association with local agriculture and former estate lands.
Today Coleby is a quiet, largely rural community with an economy still centred on farming but with residents commuting into Lincoln and nearby towns; village life is maintained through a village hall, occasional local events and easy access to cliff-top footpaths, which make it popular with walkers and anyone seeking a peaceful Lincolnshire village ambience.
