Great Sturton

Great Sturton is a hamlet and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

Great Sturton church is dedicated to All Saints,[1] and is a Grade II* listed building dating from the 11th century.

[3][4] There are two deserted medieval villages (DMV) listed for Great Sturton; one was Sudtone,[5] the other the hamlet of Lowthorpe.

The house was deserted in 1810 when the Livesey family bought the manor and built a new Hall in Sturton Park.

[7][8] The Manor, with neighbouring Baumber, once belonged to Thomas Dighton whose daughter and Heiress married Edward Clinton, the second son of the first Earl of Lincoln, whose successors were the Dukes of Newcastle.
