Old Clee history

Clee was one of six villages, or thorpes, within a wider ancient parish, also called Clee. Of the six, only Old Clee, as it is now known, and, to the west, Weelsby, remain. A long-standing dispute with Grimsby over the position of the boundary stone near Bath Street was settled in favour of Clee in 1830.

Church history

An early church existed in Old Clee prior to the Norman Conquest. The present church is Grade I English Heritage listed. Its Saxon tower dates to 1050, while a Latin inscription records the dedication of the church to ‘Saint Trinity and St. Mary the Virgin’ by Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln, in 1192.
