Dorrington is a small rural village in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. Nestled amid the gently rolling arable farmland typical of the county, it sits within the network of villages between the city of Lincoln and market towns such as Sleaford.
The local economy is largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns, and the village retains a close‑knit community feel: quiet lanes, public footpaths popular with walkers and a modest historic character reflected in traditional cottages and a parish atmosphere rather than major tourist attractions.
