Winnibriggs and Threo is a wapentake in the Parts of Kesteven, the south-east division of Lincolnshire.
Extent
The wapentakes of Winnibriggs and Threo (or Threw) were formed in the early Middle Ages. Both are mentioned in Domesday Book.[1] It is unclear when they were merged. In the 1830s the combined wapentake included part of the town of Grantham (the "Soke of Grantham" was usually designated separately in that period)[2] and of the parishes of Allington (East and West), Barrowby, Boothby Pagnell, Braceby, Colsterworth, Great Ponton, Heydor, Honington, Humby, Little Humby, Little Ponton, North Stoke, Ropsley, Sapperton, Sedgebrook, Somerby, South Stoke, Spittlegate, Stoke, Stroxton, Syston, Welby, Wilsford, Woolsthorpe, and Wyville cum Hungerton.[3]
