Bracebridge Heath is a commuter village located approximately 2 miles south from the city and county town of Lincoln, England. It lies at the junction of two major roads the A15 to Sleaford and the A607 to Grantham, and was part of the Boothby Graffoe Wapentake. The village sits on top of Lincoln Cliff, overlooking Lincoln and the valley of the River Witham. The Viking Way runs along the cliff top, a 147 miles long footpath, which runs from the Humber Bridge to Oakham. Its population at the 2001 census was 4,530, increasing to 5,656 at the 2011 census.
Until 1898 Bracebridge Heath was part of the parish of Bracebridge. Bracebridge may have had its origins in the Old English braesc + brycg, meaning 'bridge or causeway made of branches'. The River Witham runs 1 mile to the west, lending some credibility to this theory.
