At the time of Domesday, as part of the South Riding of Lindsey, the settlements of Hallington and Kelstern, Raithby by Louth and Raithby by Maltby were held by Earl Hugh, containing sokeland of the manor of Tathwell, and had a minumum population of 61 people.{1} The placename Raithby derives from the Old Norse personal name 'Hreithi' and the Old Danish 'by', translating as 'Hreithi's farmstead/village'.{2}{3} The Diocesan Return of 1563 records 21 households for Raithby cum Maltby, by then part of the Deanery of Louthesk.{4}
