From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blankney is a village and civil parish in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. Blankney is a small stone-built estate village, built around the large estate of Blankney Hall.

Blankney has existed at least since the time of William the Conqueror, when it belonged to the major land-owner Walter D’Aincourt.

The place-name ‘Blankney’ is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as Blachene. It is listed as Blancaneia in 1157 in Early Yorkshire Charters, and as Blankenei in 1202 in the Assize Rolls. The name is the Old English blancan Δ“g, thought to mean ‘Blanca’s island’.
