West Barkwith is a village in Lindsey, the northern part of Lincolnshire. It is on the A157 road and about two and a half miles north-east of Wragby.
With its neighbour, East Barkwith, West Barkwith appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as one entity. It had 26 households and a church.
The parish church was mediæval and dedicated to All Saints.[1] The Diocese of Lincoln declared the church redundant in September 1981, and in February 1983 the church was demolished.[2]
