Fleet is a village, civil parish and electoral ward in the South Holland district of Lincolnshire, England. It lies on Delph Bank, {{convert|3|mi|km|1}} south-east from Holbeach. The population of the civil parish, including Fleet Hargate, at the 2011 census was 2136.

In 1086, Fleet was listed as Fleot (Old English: the stream, estuary or creek), in the wapentake of Elloe in the Parts of Holland of Lincolnshire.[2]

The Grade I listed Church of England parish church, dating from the late 12th century, is dedicated to St Mary Magdalene.[3] The {{convert|120|ft|m|0}} church tower with spire is detached from the nave by {{convert|15|ft|m|1}}. The fabric is mainly Decorated in style, with Early English arcades and a Perpendicular west window. According to Cox (1916), the church was restored in 1860, when the chancel was rebuilt, although the canopied sedilia was retained.[4][5] In 1964 Pevsner noted 1798 repairs and considered the church "over-restored". He dated a chancel rebuild to 1843, questioned if it was "done correctly", and recorded Victorian tracery in the aisle windows, a blocked doorway to a previous chapel in the chancel, "fine busts of great variety", a Decorated-style sedilia and piscina with ogee arches and crocketed gables, a reredos dated 1790, and a defaced 14th-century effigy.[6]

Pevsner also recorded an 1854 red-brick rectory designed by Benjamin Ferrey, and a motte south-west of the village where 11th- and 12th-century pottery has been found.[6] The English Heritage record for the now ploughed-down motte site details finds from the Iron Age to the 18th century.[7][8]
