__NOTOC__ Worlaby is a village and civil parish in North Lincolnshire, England, south-west from Barton-Upon-Humber and north-east from Brigg. It lies on the B1204, and to the east of the River Ancholme. It is one of the five ''Low Villages'' – South Ferriby, Horkstow, Saxby All Saints, Bonby, and Worlaby – between Brigg and the River Humber, named so because of their position below the northern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds.〔(Worlaby - North Lincolnshire ), Northlincs.com.
