Fulney is an area[1] of Spalding in Lincolnshire, England. It is located to the northeast of Spalding town centre and is one of the oldest parts of the town.[2]

It became an ecclesiastical parish in 1877, and the Grade I listed St Paul's Church on Holbeach Road was built in 1880.[3][4]

In 1936 a Land Settlement Association was established at Fulney, made up of 38 tenanted smallholdings for unemployed miners from the north-east, at the time of the Jarrow March.[5]

Fulney now forms part of the wider Spalding urban area.
