Location
Barrowby is 300 feet (91 m) above sea level, situated close by the Vale of Belvoir. Belvoir Castle is clearly visible all year from isolated parts of the village, and on a clear day, Lincoln Cathedral and power stations in the Trent valley including West Burton and Cottam, near Gainsborough over 40 miles (64 km) away can be clearly seen.
Barrowby is located very close to the Lincolnshire borders with Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire.
The stretch of the A1 from Great Ponton to Great Gonerby which runs past the village is considered an accident black spot.
Adjoining villages include Sedgebrook, Harlaxton, Denton and the small hamlets of Casthorpe and Stenwith.
