Goxhill is a village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, sitting on the south bank of the Humber Estuary. The parish mixes low-lying farmland, drainage channels and small areas of marsh, giving expansive skies and a clear coastal character; it lies within easy reach of Barton-upon-Humber, Immingham and Scunthorpe.
The area has a strong rural identity with agriculture still important to the local economy, while its history is marked by a notable Second World War airfield whose surviving control tower and aviation associations attract interest. The village retains a historic core with an old parish church and traditional buildings, and community life centres on village institutions and occasional local events, alongside commuters who work in nearby ports and industrial centres.
