History

Raventhorpe was described in the Domesday Book as a settlement in the hundred of Manley, with 9 households in the year 1086.[2] Immediately south west of Raventhorpe Farm is the site of a scheduled monument, which consists of medieval earthworks and the buried remains of several buildings.[3] In the early 1870s Raventhorpe was described by John Marius Wilson in the Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales as "a hamlet in Appleby parish, Lincoln; 4¼ miles W of Glanford-Brigg".[4] In 1866 Raventhorpe became a separate civil parish, on 1 April 1936 the parish was abolished and merged with Holme.[5] At the 1931 census (the last before the abolition of the parish), Raventhorpe had a population of 23.[6]
