Details

The Parts of Kesteven are a traditional subdivision of Lincolnshire, England. This subdivision had long had a separate county administration (quarter sessions), along with the other two parts, Lindsey and Holland.EtymologyThe word Kesteven is supposed to have derived from two root words: the Celtic ' meaning wood (compare Modern Welsh coed) and the Old Norse ', a meeting place. The earliest record of the place name is from about 1000 AD (in the Pipe Rolls of Lincolnshire) and was spelt Ceostefne, developing into Ketstevene by 1194.
