Market Deeping is a compact market town and civil parish in South Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, set beside the River Welland and forming part of the cluster known locally as the Deepings. The town sits on the edge of fenland country with pleasant riverside walks, historic bridges and a compact centre of older stone and brick buildings, while nearby Deeping St James and the city of Peterborough are within easy reach.

Historically a market settlement, Market Deeping still shows its market-town roots with independent shops, community groups and a regular local market tradition; the surrounding countryside remains strongly agricultural. Today it combines a village atmosphere with some commuter growth, a lively local scene of clubs and events, and easy access to regional centres for work and leisure.
