Belton is a small village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, a short drive from Scunthorpe and set amid the low-lying arable landscape close to the Humber estuary. The surrounding countryside is typical of the region, with flat fields, drains and hedgerows; agriculture remains an important part of the local economy while many residents commute to nearby towns and the ports on the estuary for work.
The village has medieval roots and retains a traditional feel, centred on a parish church and modest community facilities such as a village hall, pub and primary school, with several older cottages and farmhouses hinting at its past. Local life is quiet but community-minded, with clubs and occasional events that keep a strong village identity while benefitting from modern transport links.
