Upton is a small rural parish in the district of West Lindsey, in the county of Lincolnshire, England. Set amid gently rolling arable farmland and hedged lanes, the settlement has medieval roots centred on its parish church and a handful of stone cottages; quiet lanes and waymarked footpaths make it popular with walkers and cyclists.
The local economy is largely agricultural, with some residents commuting to nearby towns such as Lincoln or Gainsborough. Community life is centred on village events and the parish council, and a number of listed buildings and traditional practices give the place a tight-knit, historically grounded character that still attracts newcomers seeking a countryside base.
