Holland is a region in south-east Lincolnshire, England. It is one of the three ancient subdivisions of Lincolnshire (the other two are Lindsey and Kesteven) that had their own county councils from 1888 until 1974, when they were abolished and Lincolnshire had a single county council for the first time. The name continues to be used in the administrative district of South Holland. It is very flat and has a high water table, so is rather marshy.
