Raithby cum Maltby is a civil parish about 1 mile (1.6 km) south west of the town of Louth, in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.[1] It comprises the hamlets of Raithby and Maltby, situated in the Lincolnshire Wolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The grade II listed parish church at Raithby is dedicated to Saint Peter and dates from the late 13th century, although it was rebuilt in 1839 W. A. Nicholson and paid for by Rev Henry Chaplin in rendered brick. It includes a late 13th-century north arcade, a 15th-century font, and some 16th-century imported glass. The chancel was restored in 1883 by C. H. Fowler.[2][3]
