Saxilby lies in the district of West Lindsey in Lincolnshire, England, a few miles to the west of Lincoln on the low-lying floodplain cut by the Foss Dyke and the River Trent. Its riverside and agricultural setting is balanced by good road and rail links into the city, so it feels like a village but functions partly as a commuter hub.
The community combines a mix of local shops, a primary school, sports clubs and light industrial units with a strong local identity; many residents get involved in parish events and clubs. Historically the settlement developed around farming and river trade, and traces of that canal-side and rural heritage remain in the built environment and landscape.
