Anderby Creek is situated on the Lincolnshire Coastal Grazing Marsh which has extensive grassland landscapes rich in wildlife, intersected by a distinctive pattern of water courses. Over the last years five nature reserves have been established within walking distance from Anderby Creek to re-establish habitat for wildlife.
