About Grimsby - show infohide info
Great Grimsby (typically known simply as Grimsby) is a seaport on the river Humber in the north of England, which has a population of 91,000. It is physically linked to the adjoining town of Cleethorpes, and 11,000 of its inhabitants live in the village of Scartho (which was absorbed into Grimsby in 1927 before laws on the Green Belt were put in place). Historically in Lincolnshire, Grimsby was given county borough status in 1891, which it retained until it was moved into Humberside in 1974 (where it formed the borough of Great Grimsby) and since 1996 has been part of the unitary authority of North East Lincolnshire. It is called "Great Grimsby" to distinguish it from Little Grimsby, a village about 20 km to the south, near Louth. Grimsby is traditionally associated with the fishing industry, and today has the largest fishing port in the UK, though the industry is in decline as a result of quotas. Towns near to Grimsby include Cleethorpes, Scunthorpe, Kingston-upon-Hull and Immingham.
