North Killingholme is a small village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, sitting on the southern bank of the Humber Estuary a short distance west of Immingham and north‑east of Grimsby. It has a compact historic core centred on its parish church and traditional cottages, while the surrounding coastal marshes and mudflats give dramatic estuary views and strong wildlife interest.
Locally the economy is dominated by the nearby Humber ports and energy and petrochemical facilities, so industry and logistics sit alongside a small, tight‑knit rural community; vestiges of the wartime airfield (RAF North Killingholme) and other historic features reflect its past. The contrast between heavy industry, shipping activity and quiet saltmarsh is a defining and often surprising characteristic of life here.
