Heapham is a small, largely agricultural village and civil parish in the district of West Lindsey, in rural Lincolnshire. It sits on low-lying arable land close to the River Trent valley and is best known for its quiet character and proximity to the market town of Gainsborough, which provides most local services and commuting links.
Historically the settlement has medieval roots and retains a few historic buildings including the parish church and scattered listed houses, but today the economy is dominated by farming with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Social life is typical of small Lincolnshire villages - modest community events and countryside pursuits make it appealing to walkers and those seeking a tranquil rural base.
