About

Winthorpe ward occupies a coastal strip of East Lindsey, fronting the North Sea. The area is dominated by the holiday park of Winthorpe itself and the Butlin's resort at Ingoldmells, creating a landscape of seasonal accommodation and visitor facilities. The terrain is low-lying and flat, with the land primarily used for agriculture inland from the developed shoreline.

The ward includes the village of Addlethorpe, set back from the coast, which provides a more residential character. A notable feature is the presence of the former RAF Skegness, a historic airfield site whose structures and runways have been largely repurposed. The boundary runs along the Roman Bank, an ancient sea defence, marking the inland edge of the coastal settlement.
