Until the early 20th century the village of Barroway Drove - now part of the parish of Stowbridge - was referred to as part of Stow Bardolph Fen. In 1943 an airplane belonging to the 379th BG, 525 Squadron - the 42-31083 FR A "Tenny Belle" - crashed in the village after a mid-air explosion, killing all but one crew member.
