Morton is a small village and civil parish in the district of South Kesteven, in Lincolnshire, England, lying just a short distance from the market town of Bourne. It sits on the edge of the fenland and limestone belt, with a landscape of arable fields, hedgerows and traditional stone cottages that reflect its rural setting.
The village has medieval roots and a parish church at its heart, and its economy remains strongly influenced by agriculture while many residents commute to nearby centres such as Grantham or Peterborough. Social life is typical of small Lincolnshire villages, centred on a village hall, local groups and occasional events, and the locality benefits from nearby country houses and estates, notably Grimsthorpe Castle, which add to the historic character of the area.
