Swineshead Abbey was an abbey in Swineshead, Lincolnshire.

The Abbey of St Mary, a Cistercian monastery, was founded in 1134 by Robert de Gresley.[1] Gresley and his son, Albert, endowed the Abbey with 240 acres of land and other gifts.[2] The Abbey was originally Savigniac and populated with monks from Furness Abbey,[2] but was absorbed into the Cistercian order along with all the other Savigniac Houses in 1147.[3] In 1170 the Abbot of Swineshead was reprimanded for owning villages, churches and serfs.[3] King John spent a short time in the Abbey after losing his baggage in the fens, and just before his death in 1216.[3] It was dissolved in 1536 with the first Act Of Suppression, its last Abbot being John Haddingham.

The first documented reuse of the site dates from 1607 when a farmhouse, Abbey House, was built out of the abbey ruins by Sir John Lockton.[1] The Abbey House is a Grade II listed building.[4]

The abbey occupied a slightly raised area in the marshland 1km north east of Swineshead. In the raised area in the north-eastern part of the monument, partly overlain by Abbey House, are the buried remains of the abbey's inner court where the church, cloister and dorter (dormitory) would have been located.[1] Adjacent to the west is another raised area where the remains of the outer court are located; these would include stables, barns and other agricultural and service buildings, together with the principal gatehouse of the abbey.[1] The foundations of stone walls and fragments of medieval artefacts have been located in the outer court.[1] "Although the site is now a private residence it can still be seen from the main A52. If travelling south from Boston you reach the Baythorpe area of Swineshead, on the right is [https://web.archive.org/web/20010404000825/http://www.manorfarmshop.co.uk/ Manor Farm Shop] and approximately 200m further, behind the trees, is Swineshead Abbey."
