Quadring is a small village and civil parish in the South Holland district of Lincolnshire, England. It lies on the A152, north-east from Gosberton, and 2 miles south-east from Donington. The village includes the community of Barholme to its south-west. To the east of Quadring is Quadring Eaudike,〔(Quadring Eaudike ), geograph.org.uk; retrieved 25 June 2011〕 and to the west is Quadring Fen.〔(Quadring High Fen ), geograph.org.uk; retrieved 25 June 2011〕 Nearby to the west is the Peterborough to Lincoln Line. The A152 (as Main Road within the village) transects Quadring and provides links to Spalding, Boston, Donington and Gosberton. The village name is derived from the Old English "cwead+haefer+ingas" (Muddy settlement of Haefer),〔(Quadring ), genuki.org.uk; retrieved 25 June 2011〕 and is recorded in the ''Domesday Book'' as ''Quadheveringe'' and ''Quedhaveringe''.
