About

Grimoldby ward encompasses the village of Grimoldby itself along with the nearby settlement of Manby. The area lies on the eastern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, giving the landscape a gentle, rolling character. Agricultural land dominates, primarily supporting arable farming. The ward is positioned just inland from the Lincolnshire coast, with the larger market town of Louth to the west.

The ward's built environment consists mainly of residential housing, with local services centred in the village. A notable feature is the former RAF Manby airfield, a significant Cold War-era base that has since been largely redeveloped for private and industrial use. The area is bisected by the A1031 road, providing a direct route towards the coastal towns. Community life revolves around the village hall and the local parish church.
