It is mentioned in a will of 1524.[4] A clock was erected to serve as a Great War memorial on the tower of Heighington's endowed school in 1924.[5] Heighington Railway station closed in 1964.[6] CommunityParts of Heighington lie within a conservation area.[7] The 2001 Census recorded 1,203 households. The parish council has 11 members. [8] The village shares a county councillor with Washingborough. Heighington chapel, a former church,[9] is dedicated to St Thomas, and in the group of Washingborough and Heighington with Canwick.[10] The building is of 12th-century origin, is Grade II listed,[11] and was restored in 1619 as a chapel by Thomas Garratt, a 'fen-adventurer' of the fen drainage scheme. Garratt gave lands for the support of the teaching of grammar and Latin and the reading of divine service within the chapel. This teaching took place until 1864-65, after which a new attached school house was built by Michael Drury, the older structure reserved for Church of England worship.[12][13] This grammar school was attached to the church until 1885, and later moved to the Thomas Garrett Arts, Crafts and Heritage Centre; it closed in 1976.[14] In 1885 Kelly’s noted the presence of Wesleyan and Wesleyan Reform chapels;[15] a Grade II listed former Methodist chapel still exists now used as a business premises.[16] According to Kelly's the parish of Washingborough, which included Heighington, had an 1881 population of 747, was of {{convert|2147|acre|km2|0}}, and had agricultural production of chiefly wheat, oats and barley.[15] Heighington’s 23 (2019) listed buildings include a manor house, farmhouse, and various houses and cottages with other attached buildings.[17] A notable unlisted building is Heighington Hall, an 18th-century mansion with gardens designed by the noted landscape architect Edward Milner.[18] Village public houses are the Butcher and Beast[19] and the Turks Head, both on High Street.[20] The village school is Millfield Community Primary Academy (formerly Millfield Community Primary School). To the south of the village and east of the railway line is Bracken Hill Golf Club.[21] The Peterborough to Lincoln Line passes through the west of the village. The Branston and Heighington railway station closed in the 1960s and was on the south-western edge of the village on Station Road. Five Mile House railway station on the Lincolnshire Loop Line, although close to Fiskerton, was also within the parish boundary. That line closed in 1964. The nearest active station is Lincoln Central.
