Map of the UK

Great Coates is a small parish on the western edge of Grimsby in North East Lincolnshire, set just inland from the Humber Estuary. The landscape is typical lowland Lincolnshire, with a historic village core and surrounding farmland that sits alongside modern industrial estates and a local railway station providing easy links to nearby towns and the ports.

With roots stretching back centuries and a medieval parish church of St Nicolas at its heart, the community expanded as railways and the growth of nearby Immingham and Humber ports encouraged industry and commuting. Today it combines a village atmosphere and active local groups with a mixed rural and industrial economy, reflecting the balance between local heritage and the demands of the busy Humber corridor.
