Welton is a large village and civil parish in the district of West Lindsey, in the county of Lincolnshire in eastern England. Set in gently rolling agricultural countryside a short distance from the city of Lincoln, it has the feel of a traditional Lincolnshire village while having grown into a mixed commuter and local community. The parish contains several historic buildings and a medieval parish church, and its pattern of lanes, hedgerows and small fields speaks to a long farming history.
Today Welton combines village amenities - a primary school, shops, clubs and an active village hall - with small businesses and light industry on the edge of the settlement. Community life is marked by regular social events and clubs, and the area is popular with people who want rural character within easy reach of city services, local markets and countryside walking.
