Grasby is a small village in the Lincolnshire Wolds, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty 3 miles (4.8 km) northwest of the town of Caistor, Lincolnshire, England.
Grasby's thirteenth century Anglican parish church, dedicated to 'All Saints', lies opposite the village primary school. The village hall holds events such as Rock and Roll and Jive classes, runs a Learn Direct programme, and is used by the village school for physical education lessons and a yearly Easter ceremony.
Grasby has one public house, 'The Cross Keys', situated on the Caistor to Brigg road, that for a time held a village shop. A second public house, the 'Bluebell' on the corner of Church Hill and Canty Nook, is now closed.
Since 1987, Grasby has been twinned with the small French village of Saint-Rémy-de-Sillé in Sarthe, whose main road has been renamed Rue de Grasby.[1]
