Barlings and Low Barlings are two small hamlets lying south off the A158 road at Langworth, about 7 miles (11 km) east of Lincoln 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.
[2] Barlings includes the Grade II listed church of St Edward the Confessor,[3] and Grade I listed Barlings Abbey ruins.
[8] 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.
