Partney is a small village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated 3 miles (4.8 km) north from Spilsby, and in the Lincolnshire Wolds. The village was the birthplace of Henry Stubbe, the noted 17th century Intellectual.
Church of St Nicholas
Partney is at the intersection of the A16 and A158 roads. A village bypass diverts the road to Skegness, Ingoldmells and Chapel Saint Leonards. Public transport is provided by the Connect No. 6 bus service which runs from Lincoln to Skegness.
