It lies on the B1398 road, 9 mi east from Gainsborough, 16 mi north from Lincoln and 3 mi south from Kirton Lindsey. Blyborough's Grade I listed Anglican parish church is dedicated to the Anglo-Saxon saint and martyr, Alkmund of Derby. Built in the early 13th century, it was partially rebuilt in 1877 by James Fowler. Two Grade II listed village buildings are Blyborough Grange Farmhouse and Blyborough Hall.
