Four roads serve Tealby, the main one being the B1203, named Rasen Road and Papermill Lane. The other three come in from Caistor, Walesby and North Willingham. We have a problem of speeding despite the 30 m.p.h. signs.

There is no public car park so parking is limited, leading to some congestion especially in Front Street, Cow Lane, and Caistor Lane.

Several footpaths intersect the village. The main one meets and follows Rasen Road for a while and is part of the Viking Way. It leaves the village down Beck Hill and through Bayons Park.

The roads and some of the footpaths are asphalt there being no pavement stones, except in Springfields. The footpath on the north side of Rasen Road is narrow and edged with a grass verge. Pavements are present in Front Street, Cow Lane, Caistor Lane, and for a short distance in Sandy Lane. Kerbstones are a mixture of granite blocks (some cobble and some brick sized) but other sections make use of preformed concrete.

The River Rase is crossed by four footbridges. There are three fords, but one is not normally passable by cars.

Open Spaces.
There are five large open spaces in the main part of the village: the Village Green by the Hall, the small field opposite the school used as the school sports field, the field behind the school, Howsham’s Field in the centre used for grazing cattle, and the gardens around the Kingsway/Sandy Lane Junction.
