It is situated on the A157 road, and {{convert|7|mi|km|0}} south-east from Louth. Stain was once an independent parish but was combined with Withern when the old church of St John the Baptist was destroyed some centuries ago. According to A Dictionary of British Place Names, the Withern name is derived from the Old English Widu or wudu, with oern, meaning "house in the Wood".[2] Another source{{which|date=July 2012}} gives the name as deriving from Old Norse vithr "wood" + OE aerne "house", meaning "the house in the wood", giving Witheren in the 14th century.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} In the 1086 Domesday Book, the village name is given as "Widerne".{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} The parish was in the ancient Calceworth Wapentake in the East Lindsey district in the parts of Lindsey. After the Poor Law Amendment Act reforms of 1834, the parish became part of the Louth Poor Law Union. The common lands, some {{convert|600|acre|km2}}, were enclosed in 1839.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} The now redundant church of St Margaret's is the burial place of Auguste Pahud and Annie Pahud, whose love story is the raison d'être for Hubbard's Hills.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} St Margaret's was rebuilt in 1812. A Wesleyan Methodist chapel was built in 1875, though the congregation dates from about 1811.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} A Public Elementary School was built in the hamlet of Stain in 1850 and enlarged in 1858 to hold 100 children. The Wesleyans built a school in 1875.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} The manor house was the seat of the Fitzwilliam family. It was occupied as a farmhouse in 1900, but the moat still exists. The Grant family lived in the manor at one time, their daughter being Annie Pahud.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} Population
