About

The South ward occupies the southernmost portion of the North East Lincolnshire unitary authority. It is primarily a residential area, characterised by post-war housing estates and some older terraced streets. The ward includes the neighbourhood of Scartho, which functions as a suburb with its own local high street facilities. The topography is largely flat, typical of the broader Lincolnshire landscape, with open fields marking its western and southern boundaries.

A significant feature is the presence of the Weelsby Woods park, a large area of mature woodland with walking paths. The ward contains several schools and community sports facilities, serving its local population. The A16 road forms a key transport route along its eastern edge, connecting to Grimsby's town centre. Land use is mixed, with residential zones gradually giving way to agricultural land on the periphery.
