Crowle, Lincolnshire history

---

Crowle is situated on one of a series of hills which form the Isle of Axholme, left exposed when the area emerged from the Glacial Lake Humber after the last Ice Age. Archaeological evidence suggests that there were occupation sites scattered throughout the area, rather than a village or town. The top of Mill Hill was used for arable farming from at least Roman times onwards.

Drainage

Many local people lost their livelihoods after the drainage of Hatfield Chase by Vermuyden in the 1620s. The scheme attempted to turn a productive marsh-based peasant economy into an arable system. The way in which it was financed resulted in much of the reclaimed land being owned by the Crown or existing landowners.
