Hackthorn is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England, to the north of Lincoln.

Geography

It is combined with Cold Hanworth to form the parish council of Hackthorn and Cold Hanworth. The population of the civil parish (including Cold Hanworth) at the 2011 census was 207.[1]

It is situated approximately 6 miles (10 km) north from the city and county town of Lincoln, and 1 mile (1.6 km) east from the A15.

According to the 2001 Census it had a population of 180.[2]

The village is part of the Owmby Group of parishes.[3]

The village dates back to Roman times. Its most prominent building is its hall, a large square brick house, built in the late 18th century in a landscaped park of around 100 acres (0.40 km2).[citation needed]

There is also a primary school, shop and village hall.

History

Situated among the trees of the park overlooking the lake is the parish church, dedicated to St Michael and All Angels. A village church is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, although the present church is a Victorian gothic building. It contains carved woodwork in the reredos screen and gallery, and an 1869 Nicholson Organ, fully restored in 2006.

World War II

A Ju 188 had shot down Avro Lancaster 'NG502' of 460 Sqn near Sudbrooke.[4] In the early hours of March 4 1945, during Operation Gisela, a German Ju 188 of NJG 5 crashed into a vehicle, between Welton and Spridlington, [5] killing the driver, Jack Kelway.[6] The four Germans were buried in Scampton church.[7]
