Barlings and Low Barlings are two small hamlets lying south off the A158 road at Langworth, in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. Low Barlings is a scattered collection of homes, situated along a trackway south from Barlings towards boggy ground near the River Witham. Both hamlets are in the civil parish of Barling.
History
Barlings is listed in the Domesday book as "Berlinge".[1]
Barlings includes the Grade II listed church of St Edward the Confessor,[2] and Grade I listed Barlings Abbey ruins.[3][4] Other listed buildings include a hall, house and farm house.[5][6] Part of the parish was once a medieval deer park.[7]
There are no standing remains of Barlings Abbey but the main building outside the monastic church has been interpreted as a detached monastic household such as the abbot's lodging. This building was reformed as a post-Dissolution secular residence of Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk, who used it as a vice-regal palace. Brandon was King Henry VIII's vice-regent in Lincolnshire in the wake of the Lincolnshire Rising.[8]
