Addlethorpe is a small village located just off the A52 west of Ingoldmells in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

Addlethorpe was mentioned in Domesday Book of 1086 when it consisted of 102 households, and was listed as having two churches.[1]

The parish church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas and is a Grade I listed building dating from the 15th century, being restored in 1875. Both the tower and the font are 15th century, and the pulpit is early 18th century.[2] It lost its chancel in 1706.[3] In the churchyard is the lower half of a 14th century churchyard cross, which is both grade II listed,[4] and a scheduled monument.[5]

Addlethorpe Methodist Church

The Wesleyan Methodists built a chapel here in 1837, which was rebuilt in 1968.[6] It is now part of the Skegness Coast Methodist Churches group, with services every Sunday.[7]

Addlethorpe Windmill was built about 1830 to replace an earlier post mill, and was constructed of tarred red brick. It is missing its cap today, and is a Grade II listed building.[8] It ceased working in 1944.[9]

The golf course is 6,400-yards and has an unusual par of 74.[10] The village is home to many caravan sites including The King's Head site and Cottage Farm.
