Map of the UK

Nettleham sits on the limestone ridge known as the Lincoln Edge a few miles to the north-east of Lincoln in the district of West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. Its elevated position gives pleasant views over the city and surrounding farmland, and the village itself blends a historic core of stone and thatch with later residential development.

Historically centred on its parish church and village green, Nettleham retains a strong community feel with local clubs, shops and a village hall, while many residents commute into Lincoln for work; agriculture still shapes the local economy and landscape. Occasional community events and active voluntary groups help maintain a lively social scene despite the village’s largely rural setting.
