Stickney is a civil parish and linear village lying along the A16 road in the middle of the Fens, just east of New Bolingbroke in Lincolnshire, England, in the district of East Lindsey.
The village hosts the Stickney Farm Park visitor attraction, opened in the early 2000s and the Rising Sun public house. The parish church is dedicated to Saint Luke. The postal address of residences in the village includes the nearby town of Boston, but the village is not in that borough.
There is the William Lovell CE Secondary Modern School on Main Road, which produces average results for that type of school. The primary school is also on Main Road, opposite the church.
The village used to be on an east-west railway line, which closed in 1970.
