North Owersby is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Owersby, in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England, and about 6miles north from the town of Market Rasen. In 1866 North Owersby became a civil parish, on 1 April 1936 the parish was abolished and merged with Owersby.[1] In 1931 the parish had a population of 249.[2]
The parish church is dedicated to Saint Martin and is a Grade II listed building. It was totally rebuilt 1762 using medieval ironstone masonry, and was altered in the 19th century. The font dates from the 18th century.
