The Lincolnshire Wolds which also includes the Lincolnshire Wolds National Landscape are a range of low hills in the county of Lincolnshire, England which runs roughly parallel with the North Sea coast, from the Humber Estuary just west of the town of Barton-upon-Humber in North Lincolnshire which then runs in a south easterly direction towards the flat Lincolnshire Fens in the south-east of the county as far south as the East Lindsey villege of East Keal. The Wolds form the highest land in eastern England between Yorkshire and Kent.[1][2] and also are a designated National Landscape although the area which is covered by this designation does not cover the entirety of the general area that makes up the Lincolnshire Wolds as a whole.
