Map of the UK

Waltham is a semi-rural ward a few miles west of Grimsby and just inland from Cleethorpes within the unitary authority of North East Lincolnshire. It sits on the lower slopes at the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds and is within easy reach of the Humber estuary, giving a mix of rolling countryside and suburban streets rather than dense urban sprawl.

The area is known for its distinctive windmill landmark and a compact village centre with local shops, pubs and community facilities, combining older cottages and more modern housing. Economically and socially it mixes agriculture and small local businesses with many residents commuting to nearby towns and the port-related industries around Grimsby, while active community groups and sports clubs help keep village life lively.
