Map of the UK

Nettleham is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England, sitting on a ridge a few miles north‑east of Lincoln. Its elevated position gives pleasant panoramic views across the surrounding countryside and towards Lincoln cathedral, and the older core of the village features a mix of historic cottages and later housing clustered along winding lanes.

The village combines a strong local community with a largely commuter and agricultural economy: there are schools, pubs, shops and a village hall that host regular events, while fields and farms still define much of the parish. Historical layers are visible in the fabric of the village - a medieval parish church and conservation areas sit alongside modern amenities - giving Nettleham a character that blends rural Lincolnshire traditions with easy access to the city.
