Faldingworth is a small, rural village and civil parish in the district of West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, sitting amid rolling farmland on the fringe of the Lincolnshire Wolds. It has a quiet, close‑knit community with limited local amenities, so people commonly travel to nearby market towns such as Market Rasen or the city of Lincoln for shopping and services.
The village’s economy is largely agricultural and its social life centres on the parish and village gatherings; a notable local feature is the former wartime airfield RAF Faldingworth, used during the Second World War and remembered by local memorials, which gives the place a tangible link to 20th‑century history amid its otherwise bucolic character.
