Hagworthingham is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is on the A158, 5 miles (8 km) east of Horncastle and 4 miles (6 km) north-west of Spilsby.[2] In 2011 the parish had a population of 359.
The place-name 'Hagworthingham' is attested in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as "Haberdingham" and "Hacberding(e)ham" according to Ekwall, which states the name means 'the ham [village] of the Hagworth people'.[3] According to Mills, Domesday assigns it "Hacberdingeham", and gives an 1198 reference of "Hagwrthingham", meaning possibly "homestead of the family or followers of a man called Haguweard", from the Old English combination of a person name with 'inga' (denoting ownership) and 'hām' (homestead, village manor or estate).[4]
Hagworthingham church, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, was restored by James Fowler of Louth in 1859.[5]
Thomas Drant, the clergyman and translator of Horace, was born in Hagworthingham.
