Blyton, Lincolnshire

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A sizeable village in the northeast of Lincolnshire about 4 miles from Gainsborough, close by the River Trent. The name is thought to be a combination of Norse and Old English words meaning, 'Bligr's farm'. Blyton was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, at which time the Norman lords Guy de Craon and Roger de Poitou had land there. The parish church of St Martin of Tours is a fine example of Early English architecture. Nearby attractions include Gainsborough Old Hall, and the superb Saxon church of Stow Minster.
