Broxholme is a small, rural civil parish in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, set amid the gently rolling arable farmland typical of central Lincolnshire and within easy reach of the city of Lincoln. The settlement is quiet and sparsely populated, made up largely of farms, cottages and country lanes rather than a concentrated village centre.
Its history is tied to long‑established agricultural use and medieval field patterns, and the local economy remains dominated by farming with many residents commuting to nearby towns for work; amenities are limited so community life often revolves around neighbouring villages and parish meetings. The parish appeals to walkers and those seeking a tranquil rural setting, with a close‑knit feel and the kinds of historic farmhouses and hedged fields that typify Lincolnshire countryside.
