Stallingborough village is the only settlement of any note in the parish, apart from industrial buildings; the small hamlet of "Little London" is to the west of the village. Land use is predominately agricultural, with drained enclosed fields; near the Humber Estuary foreshore there are industrial developments. There is a large industrial estate in the north of the parish; two chemical plants are located near the estuary foreshore: Cristal's Stallingborough plant (also known as the Battery Works, the former Millennium Inorganic Chemicals, or Laporte plc plant); and Synthomer's Stallingborough plant. The 1.28 GW South Humber Bank gas fired power station is adjacent to Synthomer's plant.
