The Moultons is a small, low-lying civil parish in South Holland, Lincolnshire, England, set in the broad, flat patchwork of the Fens not far from the market town of Spalding. The landscape is dominated by reclaimed arable fields, straight drainage channels and the occasional pumping station or sluice, giving it a distinctive open, agricultural character.
Locally the economy and rhythm of life are shaped by large-scale farming - vegetables, bulbs and cereals - and a history of land reclamation and drainage going back centuries; small village communities, parish churches and village halls provide the social heart of the area, with many residents linked to nearby towns for markets, services and events. Visitors often notice the strong sense of place that comes from the fenland horizon, historic field patterns and a close-knit rural community.
