Waithe (or Waythe) is a hamlet and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

[1] In the Domesday account Waithe is written as "Wade", in the Haverstoe Hundred of the North Riding of Lindsey.

In 1066 lordship of the manor was held by Siward Barn, this transferred to Odo of Bayeux in 1086, with Ivo Taillebois as Tenant-in-chief to William I.

St Martin's Church was described as "a neat structure" of Early English style which was partly rebuilt in 1869 for more than £2,000, the cost born by the lord of the manor.

[4] In 1885 Kelly's Directory reported that agricultural production in the still 780-acre parish was chiefly wheat, oats, turnips and barley, farmed under a four-field system.
