Hatcliffe is a small village and civil parish in rural North East Lincolnshire, England. The village sits in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It lies 12 km (7Â½ miles) south-west of Grimsby and 3 km (1.9 mi) west of the A18. It neighbours the small village of Beelsby.

St.Mary's church

The parish church St Mary's is 13th century and contains memorial stones dedicated to the Hatcliffe family (it is probable that the Hatcliffe family takes its name from the name of the village^{[further explanation needed]}) dating back to 1525. The former post office (now converted to a house) in the centre of the village stands by a small stream with stone bridges crossing it at regular intervals.
