Navenby is a charming linear village set on the Lincoln Cliff ridge in North Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, with long views across the countryside towards Lincoln. It has strong historic roots – Roman road alignments and finds have been recorded nearby – and a pretty medieval church at its heart; today the village combines local shops, a primary school and pubs with an active community calendar, while many residents commute to Lincoln and surrounding towns.
Wellingore sits a little to the west on rising ground and feels more compact and rural, known locally for its scenic hilltop views and the former wartime airfield at RAF Wellingore whose remnants are part of the landscape. The parish is primarily agricultural, with a close-knit social life centred on the village hall and church, and both villages share the quiet, conservation-minded character typical of this part of North Kesteven.
