At the time of enclosure of the lands in the Isle of Axholme, in the early nineteenth century, there were eight ecclesiastical parishes in the Isle consisting of : Althorpe, Belton, Crowle, Epworth, Haxey, Luddington, Owston and Wroot.
During the mid-nineteenth century four of the original parishes were divided up to create four new parishes, giving us the twelve parishes we have today.

The new parishes were:

West Butterwick created  from part of Owston. (1841)
Amcotts created  from part of Althorpe. (1850)
Eastoft created  from part of Crowle. (1855)
Garthorpe created  from part of Luddington. (1866)

This website is based on these twelve parishes.
