Addlethorpe is recorded in the 1086 Domesday Book with 102 households and two churches.[2]
The parish church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas and is a Grade I listed building dating from the 15th century, being restored in 1875. Both the tower and the font are 15th-century, and the pulpit is early 18th-century.[3] It lost its chancel in 1706.[4] In the churchyard is the lower half of a 14th-century churchyard cross, which is both Grade II listed,[5] and a scheduled monument.[6]
The Wesleyan Methodists built a chapel here in 1837, which was rebuilt in 1968.[7] It is now part of the Skegness Coast Methodist Churches group, with services every Sunday.[8]
Addlethorpe Windmill was built about 1830 to replace an earlier post mill, and was constructed of tarred red brick. It ceased working in 1944, and today is missing its cap.[9] It is a Grade II listed building.[10]
The golf course is 6,400 yards (5,900 m) and has an unusual par of 74.[11] Village includes two caravan sites.[citation needed]
