Map of the UK

Worlaby is a small village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, set beside the River Ancholme amid low-lying, well-drained fen and arable countryside. It lies a few miles inland from the Humber, roughly between the market town of Brigg and Barton-upon-Humber, with larger employment and services available in Scunthorpe and across wider Lincolnshire.

The village has medieval origins and retains a compact feel of historic cottages, a parish church and community facilities; agriculture remains central to the local economy while many people commute to nearby towns. Local life tends to revolve around the village hall and occasional events, and the riverside landscape with drainage channels and green lanes is popular for walking and wildlife watching.
