WELCOME TO DENTON – A Picturesque Lincolnshire Village
Denton is a charming and historic village located in the sought-after South Kesteven district of Lincolnshire. It is just 3 miles south-west of Grantham and close to the A1, which provides excellent transport links. The village sits in an attractive rural position surrounded by rolling countryside and enjoys easy access to nearby villages such as Harlaxton, Barrowby, and Woolsthorpe. The magnificent Belvoir Castle is just a short distance away, adding to the area’s rich heritage.

 
A Village Steeped in History
The name Denton comes from the Old English words meaning “village in a valley,” and its history dates back to the Domesday Book, where it appears as “Dentune.” Archaeological discoveries suggest the area may have been home to both Roman settlers and the Beaker culture, highlighting Denton’s deep-rooted historical importance.

In later centuries, iron ore quarrying became a key part of the village’s industrial heritage, with quarrying taking place across the parish from the late 1800s through to 1974. 

Community and Events
Denton has a strong community spirit, centred around regular events such as the popular Annual Street Market, held each year on the first Bank Holiday Monday in May. First launched in 1984, the market offers over 150 stalls, alongside food vendors, children’s entertainment, and traditional village sports. This much-loved event raises funds for the church, school, and village hall, and brings the whole community together.

The village also benefits from a village hall and the Welby Arms, a Grade II listed village pub dating back to the early 19th century, offering a warm welcome, hearty food, and a glimpse into Denton’s history.

 
Landmarks and Local Interest
St Andrew’s Church
Denton’s Grade I listed parish church is dedicated to St Andrew. Dating from the medieval period and beautifully restored in 1888, the church contains historic monuments and a ring of six bells, all with a rich local story.

Denton Manor and Denton Park
Denton Park is home to Denton Manor, a Grade II-listed 17th-century property originally built for Sir Bruno Welby. The park features large ornamental ponds and St Christopher’s Well, a historic spring housed within a unique fossil-and-shell grotto.

Denton Reservoir
The Denton Reservoir, built in 1797 to feed the Grantham Canal, offers a scenic spot for walking, fishing, and enjoying the local wildlife.

 
A Tranquil Village with Modern Convenience
Despite its peaceful rural setting, Denton is well connected. The village benefits from a regular daily bus service to nearby Grantham, providing access to mainline rail services to London King’s Cross in just over an hour. The A1 is only a short drive away, making this an ideal location for commuters who want to enjoy countryside living without losing connectivity.
