Thurlby is a small village and civil parish in South Kesteven, Lincolnshire, England, lying just south of the market town of Bourne on the edge of the drained Fenlands and close to the meandering River Glen. The setting is typically rural, with arable fields and hedgerows defining a quiet landscape and easy road links to nearby towns such as Stamford and Peterborough.
Historically the village has medieval roots and retains a traditional parish church and a number of older cottages and farm buildings, while economically it remains tied to agriculture alongside a growing number of residents who commute to surrounding towns. Social life centres on village events, the parish church and the village hall, giving Thurlby a close-knit community feel despite its proximity to larger market centres.
