Healing is a village and civil parish in North East Lincolnshire, England. It is situated between Stallingborough and Great Coates, and 3 miles (5 km) west from Grimsby.
The village dates from at least the early medieval period, but later contracted to a few habitations. Healing railway station opened on 1 April 1881,[2] and in the late 1800s/early 1900s the village expanded. The parish was once known as the site of a healing spring.
Outside the village there are no significant habitations in the parish. A large textile fibre plant was constructed by Courtaulds near the Humber bank in the late 1950s, and near the boundary with Great Coates a large industrial estate, Europarc, was established in the 1990s.
