Wildsworth is a small, largely agricultural civil parish in West Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. Sited on low-lying fen and river meadows close to the River Trent, it is made up of a dispersed pattern of farms and cottages rather than a distinct village centre.
Historically shaped by drainage and river-management, the local economy remains focussed on arable and livestock farming, with many residents travelling to nearby towns for work and services. Its quiet landscape and waterways make it attractive to walkers, anglers and birdwatchers, and community life tends to be informal and oriented around neighbouring parishes.
