White’s 1842
Winteringham, a long straggling village, on a bold declivity, on the
south side of the Humber, 7½ miles W. of Barton, has now in its parish 691 inhabitants, and about 3050 acres of land.
Lord Carrington owns a great part of the soil, and is lord of the manor, which was anciently held by the Marmions, one of whom, in the reign of Edward II, obtained a charter for a market here, but it was discontinued several centuries ago. A pleasure fair is held on July 14th. The copyholds are subject to small certain fines. In this parish, the great Roman road, Ermine Street, is continued across the broad channel of the Humber, by means of Brough ferry. Stukeley says, "upon a rising ground, at the end of the road, a little to the right, and a half a mile to the east of Winteringham, stood the Roman town, Ad Abuta, of which the people have ploughed up great foundations within memory; `tis now a common, skirted by the marshes of the Humber. The city was ploughed up about six years ago (1700,) and great quantities of antiquities found, now lost; great pavements, chimney stones, &c., often breaking their ploughs. In several they found streets made of sea sand and gravel.
The old haven mouth is called Flashmire, and is over against Brough, a
Roman town, on the Yorkshire shore." the flat, by the Humber, as well as the banks above it, affords a most agreeable promenade or drive, in which the broad bosom is seen laden with all sorts
of craft, and giant steam is beheld triumphing over both land and water,- the Humber Packets and the trains of the Hull and Selby railway, on the opposite bank of the river, darting to and fro before the
eye with the fleetness of wind; whilst, in the background, are seen many handsome villas, and the bold ranges of the Yorkshire Wolds. Near the village, is a chalybeate spring, supposed to possess
great medicinal properties. The Church (All Saints) is a neat structure, of Early English architecture, lighted by lancet shaped windows, and consisting of a nave, with aisles, a chancel, a chapel
on the north side, and a western tower. The arches have zigzag and other mouldings, and in the chancel is a tomb, on which is laid the figure of a knight in armour, probably one of the Marmions.
The Rectory, valued in K.B. at £28, and now at £657, is in the gift of
the Earl of Scarborough, and incumbency of the Rev. Fras. Swan, of Lincoln. At the enclosure, about 300 acres were awarded in lieu of tithes, the Independents, and the Wesleyans and Primitive Methodists,
have each a chapel here, and there is a National School in the village. The poor parishioners have divided among them yearly, in money and coals, £13. 4s. 4d., arising from the bequest of the Rev. Thos.
Adams (£100,) Eleanor Scarborough (£100 in 1815,) Roger Manners (£3.6s. 8d. per aim., left in 1596,) and Thomas Middleton. They have also £16 per annum, from a house and land, left by Thos. Boothby, in
1682, except four acres allotted at the enclosure. The Rev. Thos. Adams, who died in 1784, was rector here, and author of "Private Thoughts on Religion," &c. Henry Kirk White, the late
youthful poet of Nottingham, was some time at school here. Mr. Burkill, a respectable corn merchant, on retiring from commercial pursuits, has recently been presented with a massive piece of plate, as a
token of respect from the gentlemen with whom he had conducted business. White poppies are cultivated in this neighbourhood for distillation.

White’s 1872
Winteringham, a long straggling village, on a bold acclivity, on the
south side of the Humber, 7½ miles W. of Barton, and 2½ miles N. of Winterton, has now in its parish 779 inhabitants, and about 3970 acres of land.
Lord Carington [sic] owns most of the soil, and is lord of the manor, which was anciently held by the Marmions, one of whom, in the reign of Edward II., obtained a charter for a market here, but it was discontinued several centuries ago. A pleasure fair is held on July 14th. The copyholds are subject to small certain fines. From this parish, the great Roman road, Ermine street, was continued across the broad channel of the Humber by means of Brough ferry, which has for some time been discontinued. Stukely [sic] says, "Upon a rising ground, at the end of the road, a little to the right, and a half mile east of the present Winteringham, stood the Roman town, Ad Abum, of which the people have ploughed up great foundations within memory; 'tis now a common, skirted by the marshes of the Humber. The city was ploughed up about six years ago (1700), and great quantities of antiquities found, now lost; great pavements, chimney stones, &c, often breaking their ploughs. In several places they found streets made of seas sand and gravel. The old haven mouth is called Flashmire, and is over against Brough, a Roman town, on the Yorkshire shore." The flat, by the Humber, as well as the banks above it, affords a most agreeable promenade or drive, from which are seen the broad bosom of the estuary, laden with all sorts of craft, the Humber packets and the trains of the Hull and Selby railway, on the opposite side of the rover; and in the back-ground many handsome villas, and the bold ranges of the Yorkshire Wolds. Near the village is a chalybeate spring, supposed to possess great medicinal properties. The Church (All Saints) is a neat structure of late Norman and early English architecture, lighted by lancet shaped windows, and consisting of a nave, with aisles, a chancel, south transept and a western tower. It was restored in 1851 at a cost of £1300. The arches have zig-zag and other mouldings, and in the interior of the building is the figure of a knight in armour, probably one of the Marmions. The church also contains an organ built by Messrs. Forster and Andrews of Hull, about seven years ago, and several windows of modern stained glass. The rectory, valued in K.B. at £28, and now at £730, is in the patronage of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, and incumbency of the Rev. Charles Knowles, M>A>, who has about 280 acres of glebe, and a good rectory house, built in 1847. The Wesleyans and Primitive Methodists have each a chapel here; there is a National School in the village, built in 1845. A Library, containing over 200 volumes, with Reading Room, supplied with daily newspapers, magazines, &c., was established here in 1869, and of which the Vicar is president; Mr Bickell, secretary; and Mr Henry Burkill, librarian. The poor parishioners have divided among them yearly, in money and coals, £13. 4s. 4d., arising from the bequests of the Rev. Thomas Adam (100), Eleanor Scarbrough (£100 in 1815)), Roger Manners (£3. 6s. 8d. per annum left in 1596) and Thomas Middleton. They have also £16 per annum, from a house and land, left by Thomas Boothby, in 1682, except four acres allotted at the enclosure. The Rev. Thomas Adam, who died in 1784, was rector here, and author of "Private Thoughts on Religion," &c. Henry Kirke White, the youthful poet of Nottingham, was sometime at school here.

WINTERINGHAM is an old corporate town (which formerly had a market),
parish and pleasant village, on the south bank of the Humber, 7 miles north from Appleby station on the Trent, Ancholme and Grimsby branch of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire railway, 21/2
north from Winterton and 71/2 west from Barton, in the North Lindsey division of the county, parts of Lindsey, northern division of the wapentake of Manley, petty sessional division of Winterton,
Glanford Brigg union, county court district of Barton-upon-Humber, rural deanery of Manlake, archdeaconry of Stow and diocese of Lincoln. On the opposite shore of the Humber is a station of the Hull and
Selby railway, and on the river side are wharves for corn, malt, coal and timber. The church of All Saints is a building of stone in the Norman and Early English styles, consisting of chancel, nave,
aisles, south porch, transept and an embattled western tower with pinnacles containing 5 bells: many of the windows are stained: in the south aisle is a recumbent effigy of a Knight Templar in chain mail
in a very good state of preservation: the chancel retains a piscina and credence table: there are 350 sittings. The register dates from the year 1562. The living is a rectory, average tithe rent-charge
£121, gross yearly value £472, including 290 acres of glebe, with residence, in the gift of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, and held since 1866 by the Rev. Charles Knowles M.A. and formerly Dixie fellow of
that college, and J.P. Lincs. Here is a Wesleyan chapel, built in 1891, and a Primitive Methodist chapel, built in 1837. The poor have yearly, in coals and money, the sum of about £12, arising from the
bequests of the Rev. Thomas Adam, Eleanor Scarborough, Roger Manners and Thomas Middleton, and a benefaction left by Mr. Thomas Boothby produces about £16 yearly. Edward Westoby, late of this place, also
left in 1873 the sum of £90, the interest of which is given annually each Christmas day in bread to the poor. In the old Rectory house, now used as stables and outhouses. Henry Kirke White, the poet, was
for a brief period in 1799 under the tuition of Mr. Grainger. A pleasure fair is held under a charter granted in the reign of King John, on the 14th July. About half a mile east of the village the Roman
town Ad Abum is supposed to have stood. Near the village is a chalybeate spring, thought to possess great medicinal qualities. St. Etheldreda, when she fled from her second husband, Egfrid, King of
Northumbria, in order to devote herself to a religious life, crossed the Humber and landed at Winteringham Haven, when, turning aside to the village of West Halton, then called "Alfham," at
that time almost surrounded by marshes, she sought and received hospitality, and remaining there a short time, she built on that spot a church, which was dedicated in her honour, and is still known by
her name. William de S. Barbara, a monk of Durham and dean of York, having gone in 1143 to attend a council in London, was during his absence elected bishop of Durham, and on his return was met at
Winteringham and taken to the altar in Winteringham church, where his election was confirmed and a Te Deum sung to commemorate the event: he was bishop of Durham 1143-53. A Temperance Hall was built in
1882 for the parish, at a cost of about £300. Earl Carrington P.C., G.C.M.G. who is lord of the manor, and the rector are the principal landowners. The soil is a rich loam, resting on the oolitic
limestone stratum, which in this neighbourhood is but a little distance from the surface. The chief crops are wheat, barley, potatoes and beans. The area is 3,588 acres of land, 689 of tidal water,
principally arising from the washing away of the banks of the Humber, and 274 of foreshore; rateable value, £4,967; the population in 1891 was 584.

Near the village is a chalybeate spring, thought to possess great medicinal qualities, St. Etheldreda, when she fled from her second husband, Egfrid, King of Northumbria, in order to devote herself to a religious life, crossed the Humber and landed at Winteringham haven, when, turning aside to the village of West Halton, then called Alfham and at that time almost surrounded bv marshes, she sought and received hospitality, and remaining there a short time, she built on that spot a church, which was dedicated in her honour, and is still known by her name. William de St. Barbara, a monk of Durham and dean of York, having gone in 1143 to attend a council in London, was during his absence elected bishop of Durham, and on his return was met at Winteringham and taken to the altar in Winteringham church, where his election was confirmed and a Te Deum sung to commemorate the event: he was bishop of Durham 1143-53- A Temperance Hall was built in 1882 for the parish, at a cost of about ,£300.
