Pickworth is a civil parish and village in the South Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England.
Pickworth was mentioned in Domesday Book of 1086 when it had forty households and a church.[1]
The parish church is dedicated to Saint Andrew, and is a grade I listed building built of limestone and dating from the 12th century. Over the chancel arch are C14 wall paintings dated to about 1380. The 14th century rebuilding of the church is said to date from 1356, probably by the Pickworth family.[2]
