The boundary of North East Lincolnshire and East Lindsey is immediately south of the village, near Enfield Primary School, and the Lincolnshire village of Holton le Clay is 1 mile (2 km) to the south. The village has three schools: Enfield Primary School, New Waltham Academy and the secondary school, Tollbar Academy, which is the largest in the region and between the village and Waltham. There is a village hall just off Station Road, owned by the Parish Council, but run via an elected committee under the charities commission/Parish Council. Within the grounds is a small children's play area (in disrepair) and a small football pitch. A second, more modern hall known as the Community Pavilion is found on St. Clements Way. This is owned and run by the Parish Council. It includes 5 football changing rooms that lead onto 2 full size football pitches. To the side is a disused bowling green. Plans have been shared by the Parish Council to turn this into a children's play area - including specific access for the disabled.

The nave is partly built of massive square stones and in the north wall can be seen a blocked 16th-century four-centred arched doorway and a 14th-century three light window with ogee heads to the lights. The upper part of the chancel and the east wall of the nave were replaced with red brick during the restoration of 1850.

Cox noted that it was "nearly rebuilt in brick in 1850, but the tower is one of the many Lincolnshire instances of late Saxon architecture", and in 1964 Pevsner described it as "A rough and, at the time of writing, neglected church", with an 11th-century tower and west window, Decorated bell-openings, a Norman 12th-century tub font with cable moulding around its rim and a panel of chevrons. The church has a 1636 Paten cover. Within the churchyard to the south east of the south door are the remains of a 14th-century standing stone cross. All that remains is the stone ashlar socket base, now partly buried, and the limestone shaft. The cross is a Grade II scheduled monument. Near to the remains of the standing cross can be found the village war memorial, paid for by public subscription and unveiled in 1919. This is a marble square pillar standing on a concrete base.

Grimsby Tennis Centre is a tennis club in Grimsby, Lincolnshire, England. It was founded by members of the Welholme Methodist Church on grass courts in Welholme Road, Grimsby. In order to protect the membership from personal liability the club was formed into a Limited Company (Company number 00179077) on 16 January 1922. The land in Weelsby Avenue was purchased in April 1922 and so the tennis facility on this site predates the surrounding houses that were built in about 1930. Although the Tennis Centre is a Limited Company, its constitution requires that any profits are used to improve the facility. Elected Directors serve for a period as defined in the Memorandum and Articles of Association.
