Hainton is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated on the A157 road, 10 miles (16 km) west from Louth and 5 miles (8 km) south-east from Market Rasen.

Hainton is listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Haintone", with 9 villagers, 2 smallholders, 1 freeman, and 100 acres (0.4 km²) of meadow, and given over to Ilbert of Lacy as Lord of the Manor.^[2]

The village is the site of a medieval settlement, with evidence of earthworks indicating a ridge and furrow field system and crofts.^[3]

In 1885 Kelly's Directory recorded a now listed school^[4] built by G. F. Heneage in 1846. Agricultural production in the 2,306-acre (9.33 km²) parish was chiefly wheat, barley, oats and turnips.^[5]

Church

Hainton Grade I listed Anglican church is dedicated to St Mary. A parish church originating in the 11th century, with changes in the 13th and refurbishment in the 14th, it was possibly re-modelled by Capability Brown in 1763.^[6] It was restored by Edward James Willson in 1848 who retained early Norman lower stages of the tower and Early English nave arcades.^[7]^[8]

Cox states: "The church (St Mary) is of much interest, especially for its monuments".^[7] Monuments and effigies to the Heneage family date back to the 15th century, and are set within the north chapel off the chancel.^[8]

The rectory at Hainton was once the home of the Tudor composer William Byrd; in 1562/3, the lease of the rectory was granted by the Dean and Chapter of Lincoln Cathedral to Byrd for a period of 41 years.^[9]

Hainton Hall

Hainton Hall has been the seat of the Heneage family since the reign of Henry III.^[7] It is set in a park of 145 acres (0.59 km²), landscaped by Capability Brown about 1763.^[8] The present hall was built in 1638 with later additions,^[10] and a rebuilding and raising of the west wing, and the facing of the whole house in stucco, by Peter Atkinson in 1809. A porch was added by William Burn in 1875.^[8] Behind the south front are Georgian interiors. The main interior hall, of two-story height with staircase to an upper landing, has plasterwork in Rococo style. The Morning Room has ceiling patterns perhaps by James Gibbs.^[8]

In 1838 Thomas Moule noted ancestral family portraits at the Hall, particularly one of Sir Thomas Heneage, Vice-Chamberlain of the Household and Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster to Queen Elizabeth.^[11]

In the estate grounds is the Roman Catholic chapel of St Francis De Sales, now Grade II listed, designed by Willson.^[12]^[13] Erected in 1836 by G. H. Heneage, it was dedicated to Heneage's late wife.^[5]

The estate holds a listed 1807 stuccoed stable block,^[14] perhaps the work of Atkinson, and several 1836 estate cottages, the work of William Danby.^[8]

The Heneage family were raised to the Baronetcy in 1896.^[15] In 1967, on the death of Thomas Robert Heneage, the title became extinct.^[16]
