Map of the UK

Elsham is a small village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, set in the gently rolling farmland typical of the northern Lincolnshire countryside. It sits a few miles from the market town of Brigg and within easy reach of Scunthorpe, so while the settlement feels rural and agricultural it benefits from nearby towns for services and transport links.

The village is best known for Elsham Hall, a historic country house with mature gardens and parkland that opens to the public for seasonal walks, events and weddings, which gives the area a modest tourist and leisure economy alongside traditional arable farming. Socially it retains a village community centred on the hall, local church and village activities, reflecting a quiet blend of historic landscape and contemporary rural life.
