Caenby Corner is a small area in Lindsey, the northern part of Lincolnshire, at the roundabout junction of the A15 and A631 roads. Close to the village of Caenby, it is situated on what was a major Roman road known as Ermine Street leading from London to the North. The junction is ten miles north of the county town, the City of Lincoln.

On Caenby Corner roundabout is a filling station with shop and separate coffee shop, a private residence and the closed Moncks Arms hotel with adjacent transport cafe and lorry park. The hotel had for many years been derelict, but in 2007 there were plans to redevelop it.[1] Despite the re-cladding to the outside of the building, the hotel has never re-opened.
