Barnetby was a typical Wold's edge village until the coming of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway in 1848. The village developed a new centre close to the railway station characterised by brick terraces and a few villas. Recent decades have added commuter housing and the location close to a motorway junction gives easy access to Grimsby, Hull, Scunthorpe and beyond. But some traces of the old village still remain.
