Panton is a village in the civil parish of East Barkwith, in the district of East Lindsey, Lincolnshire, England. It is 14.4 miles (23.2 km) northeast of Lincoln.
Panton was mentioned in Domesday Book of 1086 when it had 32 households and 40 acres of meadow and a church.[1]
The former Saint Andrews church is now a hay barn, and is a grade II listed building built in the 18th century. It was restored in 1905 when the chancel arch was built and again 1925-30 by Christopher Turnor. Several 18th century gravestones survive.[2][3]
