Barton Waterside
Barton Waterside is a village in North Lincolnshire, England.

Barton Waterside is a village in North Lincolnshire, England. It is in the civil parish of Barton-upon-Humber. Barton Waterside consists of the former port area at the north end of Barton-upon-Humber. The community is centred on Barton Haven – a late Anglo-Saxon artificial harbour – which was dug c. 1000 AD to create a reliable deep water port for the extreme north of Lindsey. It seems possible that the project was initiated by Peterborough Abbey which had interests in the parish at that time.
