Bracebridge Low Fields is a suburb[1][2] to the south of Lincoln in Lincolnshire, England. It is located directly to the south of the city, close to the boundary with North Kesteven and the village of Waddington. The suburb is also located northeast of North Hykeham, south of Bracebridge, and west of Bracebridge Heath. The suburb was likely built at some point in time around the 19th-20th century and primarily built for the workers at the former Bracebridge Ironworks.[3] The suburb now forms one of Lincoln's largest estates and suburbs.[4]
