Roxby cum Risby in North Lincolnshire, England is a small, largely rural parish made up of two villages set amid hedged arable fields and quiet country lanes. Its character is defined by farming, a handful of historic cottages and farmsteads, and a compact, close‑knit community with local activities often centred on the village hall and church.
Located a short drive from the industrial town of Scunthorpe and within easy reach of the Humber Estuary, the area combines peaceful village life with ready access to larger employment and transport links; the local landscape and older buildings hint at a long history of rural settlement.
