Oxcombe

Oxcombe is a small village in the civil parish of Maidenwell in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated west from the A16 road, south from Louth and 6 miles north-east from Horncastle.

Oxcombe was previously a parish in its own right, although small; in the 1870s it comprised 27 people and 4 houses

To the south of Oxcombe lies the parish of Worlaby and to the east, that of Ruckland.

The parish name may have been derived from the Old English oxa+coomb which means ox valley.
