Cold Hanworth is a village in the civil parish of Hackthorn, in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated 8 miles (13 km) north-north-east from the city and county town of Lincoln, and just north of the A46.

The cruciform church of All Saints was rebuilt in 1861,[1] replacing one of medieval origin. The Grade II listed building was converted to a private house and renamed Old Church House in 1966.[2] It has been disused since 1973. A further listed building is a farm cottage on Green Lane.[3]

At the south of the village are the earthwork remains of Cold Hanworth medieval village. This settlement was established in the 11th century but abandoned by the 18th.[4]

Cold Hanworth Forge is a working forge and blacksmithing school.[5]
