Ledringhem (French pronunciation: [lədʁɛ̃ɡɛm]; West Flemish: Ledringem) is a commune in the Nord department in northern France.[3]

It is situated also in the ancient territory of the County of Flanders, in the Houtland (or woodland, with the cities of Cassel and Hazebrouck) in the Franse Westhoek (French Western corner) where French Flemish was still spoken until recently.

The residents of Ledringhem are called in French Ledringhemois.
