== History ==
Hinckley has a history going back to Anglo-Saxon times; the name Hinckley is Anglo Saxon: "Hinck" is someone's name and "ley" is a meadow.〔(Hinckley History Timeline ) Hinckley Past & Present〕 By the time of the Domesday Book in 1086,〔(Hinckley in the Domesday Book ) Hinckley Past & Present〕 Hinckley was quite a large village, and grew over the following 200 years into a small market town—a market was first recorded there in 1311. There is evidence of an Anglo Saxon church - the remnants of an Anglo Saxon sun-dial being visible on the diagonal buttress on the south-east corner of the chancel.〔Davis,B(1996)An illustrated guide to St Mary's Parish Church,Hinckley,pp5〕
In 2000, archaeologists from (Northampton Archaeology ) discovered evidence of Iron Age & Romano-British settlement on land near Coventry Road and Watling Street.
