Knaith is a village and civil parish about south of the town of Gainsborough in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. The population of the civil parish at the 2011 census was 335.

Knaith is a community with roots in Anglo-Saxon England. Knaith is listed as Cheneiðe in the Domesday Book of 1086 with three households, a meadow of and of woodland, located in the ancient wapentake of Well, in the West Riding of the Parts of Lindsey. Well no longer exists as a named location, but can be identified on the ground. The Lord of Knaith in both 1066 and 1086 was the St Mary's Abbey of Stow, and the Tenant in Chief in 1086 was the Bishop of Lincoln (St Mary).
