Kexby is a small village and civil parish in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, a few miles from the market town of Gainsborough and within easy reach of Lincoln. It sits in gently rolling farmland typical of northern Lincolnshire and presents the compact, rural character you expect of the county rather than any large-scale development.
The village retains traditional cottages and farmsteads and a close-knit community life centred on parish activities; economically it remains largely agricultural, with many residents commuting to nearby towns. Quiet lanes around the village give straightforward access to the wider Lincolnshire Wolds and the Humber area, and the local landscape and older buildings reflect a long rural history.
