West Barkwith is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated on the A157 road and about 2.5 miles (4.0 km) north-east from Wragby.
West Barkwith and its neighbour East Barkwith were mentioned in Domesday Book of 1086 as one entity and consisted of 26 households and a church.[1]
The parish church was medieval and dedicated to All Saints.[2] The Diocese of Lincoln declared the church redundant in September 1981, and in February 1983 the church was demolished.[3]
