Immingham - Geography

Geography

Immingham is sandwiched between the A180 to the south and the A1173 (Manby Road and Kings Road) to the north, which is also the access road between both gates of the port. From the west, it has no direct link to the A180; access is via the A1173 towards Grimsby, or more conveniently via the Brocklesby Interchange and the A160 and through the petrochemical works at South Killingholme (in North Lincolnshire). The A1173 has a spur for the east gate of the docks - Queens Road. The B1210 carries traffic to the west of the town, from Stallingborough to Habrough.

The medieval village of Immingham is on the outskirts of the town to the north west near St Andrew's Church.

The north-west corner of the civil parish is at End End Farm, next to South Killingholme and North Lincolnshire. The boundary with Habrough crosses the A180 just west of both Luxmore (Total) service stations, named after Immingham's Luxmore Farm, just to the north on the B1210. The boundary passes to the west of the medieval village of Roxton, now part of Immingham. The south-west corner of the parish takes in the east of Roxton Wood, and borders Lincolnshire in the wood, extending as far south as New Beck Drain. Eastwards from Roxton Wood there is a boundary with Stallingborough. This boundary crosses the A180 just west of the A1173 junction and follows North Beck drain along the western edge of the Kiln Lane industrial estate, and is also the postcode boundary (DN41 and DN40), and meets the Humber just east of Cray Valley Chemicals (owned by Total).
