The Order of the British Empire is a British order of chivalry. Established in 1917 to recognise civilian contributions to the British war effort during the First World War, it was expanded to include a military division at the end of 1918. While continuing to recognise achievement and service in the military, it has since become the main state honour for recognising achievements in public life in the United Kingdom. The order has had five grades since its inception. The top two, Knight or Dame Grand Cross and Knight or Dame Commander, confer the style of knighthood. The following are lists of Knights and Dames Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

In 1563 there were 145 households in New Sleaford, 11 in Old Sleaford, 20 in Holdingham and 17 in Quarrington; in the late 17th or early 18th centuries there were 250 families recorded in Sleaford (a figure which might also include Old Sleaford) and 25 in Quarrington. The first modern census was conducted in 1801 and recorded a population of 1,823 across the parishes of New Sleaford (including Holdingham), Old Sleaford and Quarrington; New Sleaford was by far the largest settlement, with 1,596 residents. The total population had exceeded 2,000 by 1811, 3,000 twenty years later and 4,000 by 1851. Growth then slowed, before increasingly by over 1,600 between 1891 and 1911, bringing the total to 6,427; this was largely a result of increases in the Quarrington civil parish, where the population quadrupled between 1881 and 1911, and significant growth at Old Sleaford, which had less than 400 residents in 1871 but 874 in 1911.

The urban district's population grew more slowly in the interwar years, exceeding 7,000 only in 1931. Having reach 7,680 residents by 1951, growth in the post-war years was sluggish, owing to the Bristol Estate's ownership of much of the land which restricted new housing development, and limited employment opportunities. A sharp increase in population between 1971 and 1981 was followed by significant growth in subsequent decades; the number of residents had reached 10,000 by 1991, 14,494 ten years later and 17,671 in the most recent census, taken in 2011. The growth rate between 1991 and 2001 (39%) was the fastest of any town in Lincolnshire. This was largely the result of substantial suburban housing developments at Quarrington, Holdingham and the east of the town which took place following the break-up of the Bristol Estates from the 1960s. Many of those travel outside the town to work; 43% of the residents living in the new housing at Quarrington worked outside North Kesteven in 2011, mostly in South Kesteven, Lincoln and the borough of Boston; of those in the district, only just "over half" worked in Sleaford itself. The latest Local Plan found that "This growth has largely been the result of people moving to the area attracted by the quality of life, low crime rates, relatively low house prices, good-quality education and [Sleaford's] central location with good road and rail links to national employment centres".

Sleaford is the largest settlement in North Kesteven and accounts for about 16% of the district's population.

Ethnicity and religion

According to the 2011 census, Sleaford's population was 97.3% white; 1.1% Asian or British Asian; 0.3% Black, African, Caribbean or Black British; and 0.9% mixed or mutli-ethnic; and 0.1% other. The population is therefore less ethnically diverse than England as a whole, which is 85.4% white; 7.8% Asian or Asian British; 3.5% Black, African, Caribbean or Black British; 2.3% mixed ethnicities; and 1% other. 92.7% of the civil parish's population were born in the United Kingdom, compared with 86.2% nationally; 4.3% were born in European Union countries other than the UK and Ireland, of which more than half (2.5% of the total) were born in post-2001 accession states; for England, the figures were 3.7% and 2.0% respectively. 2.6% of the population was born outside the EU, whereas the total for England was 9.4%.

In the 2011 census, 71.6% of Sleaford's population said they were religious and 21.7% said they did not follow a religion, making the population slightly more religious than England as a whole (68.1% and 24.7% respectively), however compared to England's population Christians made up a higher percentage in Sleaford (70.3% of people, compared with 59.3% nationally) and all other groups a lower percentage: there were 11 Sikhs in Sleaford, making up a negligible proportion of the population compared with 0.8% nationally; Hindus composed 0.3% (compared with 1.5% in England), Muslims 0.4% against 5% nationally, Jewish people 0.1% compared with 0.5% for all of England, and Buddhists 0.2% of the town's population, contrasting with 0.5% nationally.

Household composition, age, health and housing

In the 2011 census, 48.4% of the population were male and 51.6% female. Of the population over 16, 50.3% were married, compared to 46.6% in England; 28.9% were single (a smaller proportion than in England where it is 34.6%), 10.5% divorced (compared with 9% in England), 7.1% widowed (similar to the 6.9% figure for all of England), 3.1% separated and 0.1% in same-sex civil partnerships (2.7% and 0.2% respectively in England). In 2011, there were 7,653 households with a usual resident in Sleaford civil parish. Its proportion of one-person households (29.2%) is roughly in line with England's figure of 30.2%; most other households consist of one family (65.4% of the total, compared with 61.8% in England). 30.3% of households have dependent children with 6.7% in lone parent households, similar to the national figures. The rates of one-person (12.3%) and one-family (9.0%) households aged over 65 are similar to the figures for England (12.4% and 8.1% respectively). In 2016, North Kesteven had Lincolnshire's lowest rate of conception among females aged 15 to 17 (11.8 per 1,000).

North Kesteven has an aging population and is a popular retirement location, but the 2011 census showed Sleaford's population to be only slightly older than the national average; the mean age was 40 and the median 41 years, compared with 39.3 and 39 for England. 23.2% of the population was aged over 60, compared with 22% of England's population; 24.3% of the town's residents were under 20, versus 24% of England's. In 2011, 82.1% of the population were in good or very good health, compared to 81.4% in England, and 4.7% in very bad or bad health, against 5.4% for England. 17.5% of people (8% in 16–64 year-olds) also reported having their day-to-day activities limited, compared with 17.6% in England (8.2% in 16–64 year-olds).

As of 2011, Sleaford has a higher proportion of people who own their homes with or without a mortgage (68.5%) than in England (63.3%), a slightly smaller proportion of people who privately rent (15.8% compared with 16.8%) and a smaller proportion of social renters (13.6% compared with 17.7% nationally). The proportion of household spaces which are detached houses is higher than average (39.2% compared with 22.3%); other house types are underrepresented, especially apartments, flats and maisonettes (10.6% compared to 22.1% in England). 1.1% of household spaces are caravans or other mobile structures, compared with 0.4% nationally.

Socioeconomic characteristics

In 2011, 73% of Sleaford's residents aged between 16 and 74 were economically active, compared with 69.9% for all of England. 66.4% were in employment, compared with 62.1% nationally. The proportion in full-time employment was also comparatively high, at 43.8% (against 38.6% for England). The proportion of retirees is slightly higher, at 15% compared with 13.7% for England. The proportion of long-term sick or disabled is 3%, lower than England's 4%; 1.7% of people were long-term unemployed, equivalent to the figure for England. The 2011 census revealed that the most common industry residents worked in were: wholesale and retail trade and repair of motor vehicles (16.9%), human health and social work (13.4%), public administration and defence (13.3%) and manufacturing (10.9%). The proportions of retail, health and social care, and manufacturing workers were above the national rates (15.9%, 12.4% and 8.8%), while the proportion of public administration and defence employees was over double the national rate (5.9%). Most other industries were under-represented comparatively, with financial services (1.5% versus 4.4% nationally), information and communication (1.8% against 4.1% nationally) and professional services (3.7% compared with 6.7%) especially so; an exception was agriculture, which employed double the national rate (1.6% of the town's workforce compared with 0.8% nationally).

Compared with the whole of England, the workforce has relatively high proportions of people in process, plant and machine operative jobs (10.2%, versus 7.2%), elementary occupations (13%, compared with 11.1%) and caring, leisure and other service occupations (10.7% against 9.3%), as well slightly higher proportions in skilled trades (11.9% versus 11.4%). Most other occupations were underrepresented; there was a lower proportion of people in managerial, professional, associate professional and technical occupations than in England as a whole (combined 35.8% versus 41.2% of England's population aged 16–74), largely due to a smaller proportion of the town's residents being in professional jobs (12.8% compared to 17.5%). The proportion of residents aged 16 to 74 with no qualifications was 21.8%, slightly lower than the national figure (22.5%); the proportion of residents whose highest qualification is at Level 1 or 2 (equivalent to GCSEs) is higher than the national population (34.2% compared with 28.5%); 22.4% of the population have a qualification at Level 4 (Certificate of Higher Education) or above, compared with 27.4% nationally.

The government's Indices of Multiple Deprivation place North Kesteven among the 15% least deprived local authority areas in England. The data is also broken down into statistical units called Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs); data from 2015 shows that Sleaford contains the two most deprived LSOAs in the district (parts of the Sleaford Castle and Sleaford Westholme wards concentrated in the centre of the town) and two other LSOAs which score nationally in the second quartile for deprivation (covering the east of the town). However, it also includes LSOAs which were found to be the 7th-, 11th- and 14th-least deprived areas in the district, all three scoring in the lowest quartile nationally and all of them in the Quarrington and Mareham ward. The district has a very low crime rate and is regarded as one of the safest places to live in the country.

The New York Times reported that Denham was "unknown to the general public" and his inclusion in the honours list "greatly stimulated ... curiosity". The newspaper labelled him the "Iron Mask of Literature" and reported that he was not included in any major reference book, no major publisher knew the name, and The Daily Mail tasked a large part of its staff with trying to find out who he was. The New York Times also quoted the Conservative Party's chief whip, Lord Edmund Talbot, as saying that Denham "is a very old supporter of the Unionist Party ... He has from to time written political articles for the party and during the war wrote an important pamphlet or book. ... It was very popular, but the name has gone out of my head." The paper failed to find evidence of what exactly it was that earned Denham the knighthood.

In January 1882, the Estates Managers of the Hulme Charity established a scheme whereby they would be pay a yearly sum of between £500 and £1,000 to Owens College to maintain the departments of classics, English literature and history. To recognise this, the professorship of Greek was renamed the Hulme Professorship of Greek. The professor at that time was J. G. Greenwood (also the principal of the college); he resigned in 1885 and took up a separate chair in New Testament Greek, which he held until retiring in 1889.

• A Romano-British settlement 2.3km north-east of Bourne, where sherds of pottery and evidence of ditches, fences and postholes were uncovered. "Roman-British Settlement, Bourne (HER no. 34140)", Heritage Gateway. Retrieved 1 November 2020.
• Pits, ditches and a possible stone wall 1.3km south of the town centre have been uncovered; likely dating to the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD, they would have been a focus of activity outside of the Roman town. Large deposits of pottery sherds from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th century have been uncovered just east of this site.

• 1.7km north-east, near Mill Drove: a late Iron Age and Roman settlement complex revealed though pottery sherds, animal bones, postholes and building stones; the late Iron Age/early Roman settlement was focused on a raised area of land at the northern end of the site; after a 2nd-century hiatus in activity, a realigned settlement pattern emerged with enclosures (probably for domestic purposes); archaeologists theorised that this was on the outlying edges of a large settlement to the north of the site, possibly incorporating villas.
