The civil parish of Somerby sits in the district of West Lindsey in Lincolnshire, England. It is a small, predominantly rural area of gently rolling farmland and hedgerowed lanes on the fringes of the Lincolnshire Wolds, with scattered farmsteads and traditional cottages; agriculture remains the main economic activity, although many residents commute to nearby market towns such as Market Rasen or Caistor for work and services.
Historically the parish has medieval roots visible in older buildings and field patterns, and local life tends to be quiet and close‑knit, centred on parish gatherings and village events. Its low population, peaceful lanes and proximity to Wolds walking routes make it appealing to walkers and anyone seeking a rural lifestyle within easy reach of larger centres.
