Riseholme is a small, largely rural parish in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England, lying a few miles north of Lincoln. The settlement is centred on parkland and a country estate, so the landscape is a mix of open fields, woodland and lanes rather than a dense village centre.
The area has historic links with the bishops of Lincoln and a 19th‑century Riseholme Hall, and today the estate is best known for hosting the University of Lincoln’s rural campus and agricultural college. That presence brings teaching, equine and horticultural facilities, seasonal public events and a bit of local economic life to what remains an otherwise agricultural community.
