The northern boundary of the parish follows the course of the Sleaford Navigation, and the old course of the River Slea runs within the parish from west to east, joining the navigation Шаблон:Gbmaprim The extreme western tip of the parish pushes into Sleaford and the eastern side is demarked by a short section of the Navigation, and further by a minor drain continuous with it, the Midfodder dike (a local name for the Roman Car Dyke). The Southern edge, along Ewerby Fen, is traced by a field drain and the Hodge Dyke, which is drained into the Car Dyke by a Шаблон:Gbmaprim.[3]

The tapering western tip of the parish is traversed by the Sleaford avoiding line of the railway, and the A17 Sleaford bypass.[2] At the North Eastern corner of the parish the place-names Ferry Lane and Ferry Farm point to the former ferry over the modern Slea Navigation.[3]

Most of the parish is about Шаблон:Convert above sea level, only Ewerby village itself rising above Шаблон:Convert, and in places above Шаблон:Convert altitude. The Parish is generally open fields, with some woodland, one of whose names belies their purpose: Шаблон:Gbmaprim.[2][3]
