Etymology and early history
Huttoft is listed three times in the 1086 Domesday Book as Hotoft,[2] in the manors of both Huttoft and Greetham in the Calcewath Hundred of the South Riding of Lindsey.

Before the Norman Conquest Earl Harold was lord of Greetham; this in 1086 transferred to Earl Hugh of Chester who also became tenant-in-chief to King William I. The 1086 tenant-in-chief of Huttoft was Alfred of Lincoln.[3]
Huttoft is an Anglo-Norse place-name derived from Old English hoh "decline", "slope" and Old Norse topt "site of a house". However, the Dictionary of British Place Names defines Huttoft as a "homestead on a spur of land."[4] De Beaurepaire states that it is the same name as the Hottot; Hotot (f. e. Hotot-en-Auge) ; Hautot (former Hotot. f. e. Hautot-sur-Seine) in Normandy.[5]
