Wrawby is a small village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, England, lying a couple of miles north of the market town of Brigg and within easy reach of Scunthorpe and the Humber estuary. It sits on gentle agricultural land near the River Ancholme, with the rolling hills of the Lincolnshire Wolds not far to the east, giving a pleasant mix of flat arable countryside and nearby higher ground.
Historically an agricultural community, Wrawby retains a village feel with a long-standing parish church, a village hall, local clubs and at least one pub, while farming still plays a part in the local economy. Many people now commute to nearby towns for work, but the village keeps traditional events and active community groups that reflect its rural heritage and close-knit social life.
