Map of the UK

Belvoir is an electoral ward in South Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England. It takes in a largely rural slice of the Vale, dominated visually by the hilltop Belvoir Castle and its estate, with rolling arable fields, hedgerows and long views across to the Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire borders.

The local economy is primarily agricultural, supplemented by tourism and occasional public events at the castle; small villages and hamlets sustain a close‑knit community but many people travel to nearby towns such as Grantham or Melton Mowbray for shops, rail links and services. The area’s history is shaped by the long‑standing estate of the Dukes of Rutland, giving the ward a distinctive historic and cultural character within a tranquil rural setting.
