With its great variety of landscape from the limestone hills that
stretch from the village to Lincoln without a break, it’s remarkably diverse geology, and the Humber with its inlets, Winteringham has always been a nature-lover’s area.
At the time of the Domesday Book, there was a ‘fishery’ here, and it
was only the growth of pollution that saw the end of salmon fishing in the Humber (more than a hundred years ago) from the shore at Winteringham.
The tremendous ‘skeins’ of geese can still be seen flying over the
village, while there are also some visitors and escapees to be spotted too, among the many native birds.
