Anton's Gowt is a hamlet in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated approximately 2 miles (3 km) north-west from the market town and port of Boston. It is the most southerly village within the East Lindsay district. Anton's Gowt is in an area once known as Wildmore Fen.
It's believed that the lock, and from it the hamlet, were named after Sir Anthony Thomas, one of a group of people who helped drain the Witham Fens from 1631 onwards. The word 'Gowt' is on old term for "A water-pipe under the ground. A sewer. A flood-gate, through which the marsh-water runs from the reens into the sea."
