Benniworth is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. The village is situated just west of the B1225 road, and 8 miles (13 km) west from Louth.

According to the 2001 Census, the village had a population of 175, increasing to 193 (including West Barkwith) at the 2011 Census.

Benniworth Grade II listed Anglican parish church is dedicated to St Julian. The church is cruciform in plan with a conical roofed tower. Restoration by James Fowler was undertaken in 1875 when the transepts and chancel were rebuilt. The Norman west doorway and south side of the nave remains, with the font being reconstructed from Norman fragments.
