Deserted medieval village site, part of which is scheduled, with typical sunken roadways and house enclosures.
The settlement of Maidenwell in Loutheske wapentake is first mentioned in Domesday Book where it is recorded as Welle with three manors held by different people but all held of Hugh, the Earl of Chester. The land associated with these manors included meadow and woodland as well as a salt pan. The saltpan would have been further east closer to the coast as it would have needed access to sea water. In 1086 there was a minimum population of 14. The settlement is not specifically mentioned in the Lindsey Survey of 1115 but was probably included under Tathwell in the Loutheske wapentake holdings of Richard, Earl of Chester (heir of Hugh of Chester). This Domesday land holding can be traced to the Book of Fees in 1212 where the fee is found in the possession of Alan de Boydell whose antecedents were granted the fee by Richard, Earl of Chester.
Maidenwell takes its name from a spring (Welle) with the prefix maiden, a young unmarried lady, thus meaning 'maidens' spring'. The significance of the name is not known.
