Burton is a small, rural civil parish in the district of West Lindsey, in the county of Lincolnshire, England. Set among arable fields and hedgerow-lined lanes, it retains a quiet village character with a scattering of traditional cottages and farm buildings rather than a busy high street.
Historically rooted in agriculture, the local economy remains largely farming-based while some residents commute to nearby centres such as Gainsborough and Lincoln. Social life is centred on village institutions - a church, community events and occasional village-hall activities - and the surrounding countryside makes it popular with walkers and those looking for a peaceful base in rural Lincolnshire.
