South Kyme is a small village in North Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, set beside the winding Kyme Eau, a branch of the River Slea. Its skyline is dominated by the dramatic ruin of Kyme Tower, the surviving fragment of a medieval castle, a reminder of the village’s long history and its medieval manorial connections.
Situated on the edge of the drained The Fens, the surrounding landscape is largely agricultural and farming still plays an important role, while many residents commute to nearby Sleaford for work and services. The riverside setting encourages waterside walks, angling and a quiet, close-knit community life, with historic interest that draws visitors exploring Lincolnshire’s rural past.
