Thorpe Tilney

Thorpe Tilney is a hamlet in the civil parish of Timberland, in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England.

[2] Evans Farmhouse, originally an inn on the then Billinghay to Metheringham road, is also a listed building, built of red brick and dating from 1782.

[6] Thorpe Tilney Hall is a Grade II listed red brick country house dating from 1740 with later alterations and additions.

The Hall was used by the Whichcote family as a dower house for their main seat, Aswarby Park, the other side of Sleaford, and one of their tombs can be seen in the adjacent Timberland church.

[10] The Whichcotes continued to own Thorpe Tilney, with a 2,000 acres (8 km2) estate, until 1918, when much of the land was bought by the County Council to provide small-holdings for returning soldiers.
