Winthorpe is a small village on the coast of Lincolnshire, in Lindsey, the county's northern part. It is about two miles north of Skegness town centre and forms in effect a continuation or resumption of Skegness's seafront.
In days past, the manor belonged to Lord Monson.
The parish church, St Mary, is a Grade I listed building dating from the 13th century, although most of it is 15th-century.[1][2] Today St Mary's forms part of the Skegness Group of Churches in the Diocese of Lincoln, which group also includes: St Matthews, Skegness; St Clement, Skegness; St Peter and St Paul, Ingoldmells; and St Nicholas, Addlethorpe.[3]
