Rowston is a very small, quietly rural civil parish in North Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, tucked into the broad arable landscape that sits between the market towns of Lincoln and Sleaford. The parish is marked by open fields, hedgerows and country lanes rather than any large settlement, so its character is best appreciated as part of the patchwork of farms and smallholdings that define central Lincolnshire.
Locally the economy is dominated by agriculture and associated businesses, and the social life tends to revolve around parish meetings, neighbouring village facilities and seasonal rural events. Historically the area reflects the long continuity of farming in the county, with traditional field patterns, stone and brick buildings and a quiet, dispersed community that many visitors find attractive for walking and for experiencing the low-key rhythms of the Lincolnshire countryside.
