North Lincolnshire has a unique history due to the River Humber which borders the North, its location & its diverse geology & topography. North Lincolnshire is an area of natural beauty and is scattered with historic towns & villages. According to the Domesday Survey, Barton-upon-Humber was a more important port than Grimsby & predates Hull by centuries. Brigg owes its origins to the bridge over the River Ancholme & an annual fair which was established by the Royal Charter from King John in 1205.
