New Clee
New Clee is an Ecclesiastical parish and a suburb of Grimsby in North East Lincolnshire, England.[1]
The Ecclesiastical parish is New Clee St John & St Stephen, based on the eponymous parish church. It is part of the Deanery of Grimsby & Cleethorpes. The incumbent is The Revd Kay Jones.[2] The original Saxon church of St. John the Evangelist was rebuilt in 1879, designed by J. Fowler, the Louth architect.[3] It was demolished when Cleethorpes road was dualled.[1][4] The church, with both its dedications, now meets in a location in Rutland Street, the Shalom centre.[5]
According to the Church Urban Fund this is one of the most deprived areas in the country.[5][6]
The Ecclesiastical parish includes suburban streets, the station, part of the docks, and the Grant Thorold Park.[7] Grant Thorold park was a gift to Grimsby in 1911,[8]
Blundell Park football ground is in the suburb, but outside the ecclesiastical parish.
The suburb is served by New Clee railway station.
