Keelby Village
The Village of Keelby is located in the county of Lincolnshire and within the boundaries of West Lindsey District Council

The village has been a farming area since its early days and the local farming community still play a large role in village life.
An Overview of North East Lincolnshire
North East Lincolnshire is a small but diverse area on the east coast where the Humber estuary meets the North Sea. The
adjoining towns of Grimsby and Cleethorpes form the largest centres of population, with the major container port of Immingham
to the north. In contrast, rural communities such as Laceby, Waltham, Aylesby, Irby, Keelby and Wold Newton extend into the
attractive Lincolnshire Wolds. Grimsby and many of the villages have the ending -by, showing that the settlements have Scandinavian
origins. The area is well served by roads. It is less than three hours from London by rail and is only a few minutes drive from
Humberside Airport. The famous Humber Bridge enables you to reach the ferry port in Hull in less than an hour and is a gateway
to the region.
Once famous for its fishing industry, Grimsby has carved a new identity in recent years as a center for food processing, pharmaceuticals
and petrochemicals. Cleethorpes continues to develop as a seaside resort, a process started with the advent of the railway in 1845.
