About

Louth Central & South encompasses the historic market town of Louth and its surrounding rural parishes. The area is defined by the Westgate Fields, a large area of protected flood meadows that run along the River Lud, providing a natural green corridor into the town's centre. The landscape transitions to agricultural land south of the town, characterised by open fields and small, dispersed villages.

The town itself is focused around its market and the notable parish church of St James, which boasts the tallest spire of any English parish church. Economic activity centres on local independent shops and businesses along its Georgian streets. The area's geography is largely flat, typical of the Lincolnshire Wolds foothills, with the Lud Valley influencing local land use and settlement patterns.
