Cleethorpes is a seaside resort and is physically linked to the neighbouring town of Grimsby (the main town boundary runs along the residential, Park Street). Interestingly Cleethorpes also hosts the home ground of the football club, Grimsby Town F.C., one of few, but not the only, English league clubs with a town or city name to have their home ground in a different community. Residents in older Cleethorpes are called Meggies but it seems very unclear where the name "meggie" comes from. Some say that the top of Isaac's Hill used to be called "Megs Island", while others say a "meggie" was the cost of a tram fare from Grimsby to the resort. The term "Meggies" is used in Grimsby to refer to the town itself, as well as it's inhabitants[citation needed] The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view. ...

History
Before joining into one town, Cleethorpes was made up of three small villages, or "thorpes": Itterby, Oole and Thrunscoe, which were part of a wider parish called Clee. The name "Cleethorpes" is thought to come from joining the words "clee", an old word for clay, and "thorpes", an old word for villages. In the 19th century Cleethorpes was a fishing village but after the construction of the railway between the industrial towns of Yorkshire and the coast it grew rapidly. It has been a popular day resort for many years. Recent years have seen the growth of large residential caravan parks. Alternative meaning: Nineteenth Century (periodical) (18th century — 19th century — 20th century — more centuries) As a means of recording the passage of time, the 19th century was that century which lasted from 1801-1900 in the sense of the Gregorian calendar. ...
