BARROW UPON HUMBER: North Lincolnshire Parish #39 of 56 

NORTH LINCOLNSHIRE PARISH #39: BARROW UPON HUMBER
Barrow upon Humber is a village, civil parish, and like Ulceby it’s own post town. It’s situated in North Lincolnshire not far away from the River Humber and 3 miles away from Barton
Barrow upon Humber is often shortened to Barrow, and can so easily be mistaken for Barton upon Humber, their names being extremely similar to each other
Barrow has way more history than you might think. This was the site of an Anglo Saxon priory, and although its location is now built over, the road adjacent to it still makes reference to it
Heavily associated with the place is a man we’ve spoken about before in Wakefield. A certain John Harrison, who you may recall solved a major nautical problem
This is another slice of North Lincolnshire which was important for brickmaking. There was also a quarry too, and the limestone under the ground here aids the formation of natural blow wells
Also part of the parish is Barrow Haven, one and half miles to the North, located on the railway line between Cleethorpes and Barton.
Like New Holland, Barrow Haven has a wharf which handles timber from the Baltics, but it’s also got a whole heap of historical interest, all of which this one video simply cannot cover
Let’s get walking and get a feel for what Barrow is all about!
