Roxholm is a small, rural parish in the district of North Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, set in the gentle arable landscape typical of central Lincolnshire. The area is characterised by rolling fields, hedgerows and a scattering of stone and brick cottages and farmsteads, with the countryside shaped by historic field patterns and country lanes rather than urban development.
Locally the life of the parish revolves around farming and community institutions such as the village hall and parish church, with many residents also commuting to nearby towns like Lincoln and Sleaford for work and services. Its quiet character, agricultural economy and close-knit social life make it representative of the county’s small rural communities, where local history and seasonal rhythms remain important.
