Winteringham is a village in North Lincolnshire, England, on the south bank of the Humber Estuary.
[1] It was where Ermine Street, the major Roman road between Londinium (London) and Lincoln, terminated on the south bank of the Humber.
Travellers then crossed the river by way of a ferry or low-tide ford to Petuaria (Brough) on the north bank where Cade's Road continued on to Eboracum (York) and Hadrian's Wall.
[1] The village, and its neighbour Winterton to the south, were possibly named after Wintra – the first King of Lindsey.
[2] In the 19th century there were two maltkilns, a mill, boatyard, brewery, brickyards and by 1907, the North Lindsey Light Railway.
