About Melton Ross

The gentle sweep of the Lincolnshire Wolds forms the immediate embrace of Melton Ross, a village where the sky seems to stretch a little wider. It lies 7.6 km east-north-east of Brigg (from Brigg: bearing 67°T, OS grid TA 073 103), and is situated east-north-east of Barnetby le Wold village. The air here, on a fine afternoon, carries a subtle, earthy perfume, a blend of cultivated fields and the distant whisper of the Humber estuary. Melton Ross's modest collection of dwellings, some with roofs of weathered pantile, seem to absorb the diffused golden light that often bathes this corner of England, lending a quiet dignity to their simple forms. The landscape around Melton Ross, a patchwork of arable land, presents a pleasing, if understated, vista, the furrows of the fields like lines drawn by a patient hand across the earth. There is a palpable sense of continuity, of lives lived out against this unchanging, yet ever-renewing, agricultural backdrop.
