Goltho is a small civil parish in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. Tucked into gently rolling arable country to the north‑east of Lincoln, it has a tiny population and a distinctly rural feel, with farming and a few scattered houses defining daily life rather than any urban centre.
The parish is best known for its historic earthworks: the visible remains of a deserted medieval village and a former motte‑and‑bailey, which have attracted archaeological interest and give the landscape a strong sense of layered history. There are no large tourist facilities, so Goltho appeals mainly to walkers, local history enthusiasts and those seeking a quiet, heritage‑rich corner of the Lincolnshire countryside.
