Spridlington is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated approximately 8 miles (13 km) north from the city and county town of Lincoln, and just off the A15 road. According to the 2001 Census the village had a population of 194, increasing to 213 at the 2011 census.[1] The village is part of the Owmby Group of parishes.[2]

The parish church of St Hilary's dates from 1875. It replaced an earlier church dedicated to St Hilary and St Albinus – originally there were two churches in the village, but the site of St Albinus is unrecorded.[citation needed]

By July 2007, St Hilary's had raised enough money to have its organ renovated. The restoration project was completed and the historic Thomas Nicholson organ was re-dedicated by the Bishop of Lincoln on St Hilary's Day, 13 January 2008.[3]

There is also a village hall.
