Waddingham is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

According to the United Kingdom Census 2001 Waddingham (including Brandy Wharf) had a population of 548;[2] by the time of the United Kingdom Census 2011, the population had increased to 601.

[2] Originally there were two settlements, Stainton (where the present church is) and Wadingham, which were on either side of the Waddingham Beck which runs through the village.

[4] Waddingham is derived from two common OE suffixes: "ing" (person), or "ingas" (people), and "ham" (village or settlement), meaning the village of, or belonging to, the Wada family or tribe.

Waddingham had a post office and village shop, which closed in late August 2022, and a Methodist chapel.
