Grimsby
Grimsby (or archaically Great Grimsby) is a large town and seaport situated on the South Bank of the Humber Estuary, in England, close to where it reaches the North Sea. The town was traditionally in Lincolnshire, until it was absorbed into the new county of Humberside in 1974. After the abolition of Humberside in 1996, the town was returned to Lincolnshire, and it now serves as the administrative centre of the North East Lincolnshire unitary authority.
==Geography==
The town was previously titled "Great Grimsby" to distinguish it from Little Grimsby, a village about 14 miles (22 km) to the south, near Louth. People from Grimsby are called Grimbarians; the term ' (plural ''codheads'') is also used jokingly or disparagingly, often with reference to Grimsby football supporters.
The town had a population of 88,243 in 2011.〔(http://www.citypopulation.de/php/uk-england-yorkshireandthehumber.php?cityid=E35001320 ) - City Population. Retrieved 10 December 2014.〕 It is physically linked to and forms a conurbation with the adjoining town of Cleethorpes. Some 11,000 of its residents live in the village of Scartho, which was absorbed into Grimsby before 20th-century laws on the green belt were passed. All three areas come under the jurisdiction of the same unitary authority, North East Lincolnshire. It is close to the main terminus of the A180, which ends in Cleethorpes. 22 January is Great Grimsby Day.〔
The River Freshney rises to the west of the town, towards the A46.
