Utterby is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated on the A16 road, 10 miles (16 km) south from Grimsby and 4 miles (6 km) north from Louth.

Utterby railway station[2] (or Utterby Halt), on the line between Grimsby and Louth, closed in 1961. Near to the Village is the site of a former Gilbertine priory.[3] It is believed that the monks of this priory built the village's Packhorse bridge in the 14th century.[4]

The Prime Meridian passes to the east of Utterby.
