The ParishThe parish of Saltfleetby All Saints, one of 3 parishes along with St Peter & St Clement that make up the scattered village of Saltfleet, lies in northeastern Lincolnshire forming part of its eastern North Sea coastline. Saltfleetby All Saints is located roughly 9 miles east of the market town of Louth and just west of the A1031 road which forms Lincolnshire's coastal road between Mablethorpe and Cleethorpes. There is very little to modern day Saltfleetby All Saints, a mere hamlet sitting on a dead-straight lane heading inland from the A1031. Behind the dune-covered coastline that forms the shore hereabouts much of the land is reclaimed by extensive drainage schemes, both modern and older, the result is a flat landscape of rich alluvial soil giving both excellent pastures and rich soils for cereal production. Most of the drainage is through man-made ditches and channels with the Great Eau, situated just behind the dune line, scooping everything up to discharge into the North Sea through nearby Saltfleet Haven. Saltfleetby All Saints is sited at barely 2 metres above the sea, a height prevalent for some distance inland until Grimoldby & Manby which just pierce the 10 metre contour. Saltfleetby All Saints parish was fairly typically sized for its area, covering close to 1,500 acres it would have supported a population of just under 200 parishioners. In Domesday times the three parishes were not separably reported and were largely described as waste by their 5 owners with only 4 ploughs and some meadow reported as assets. |
