Moulton is a village and civil parish in the district of South Holland in Lincolnshire, England, set in the famously flat, low-lying landscape of The Fens. It sits close to the market town of Spalding and the surrounding countryside is defined by drained marshland, straight drainage channels and fertile fields - the geography and climate make it a strong agricultural area, particularly for vegetables and bulb growing.
The village has a long rural history shaped by land reclamation and farming, and retains a compact community feel with a parish church, village hall and local clubs and events that reflect Fenland life. Economically the parish remains centred on agriculture and related businesses, while historically the pattern of settlement and field systems points to medieval origins and later Victorian drainage improvements that transformed the social and economic character of the area.
