Background

History

Evidence of early settlement is indicated by the finding of a cast copper brooch in the village, which was based on a late Roman age coin. The village was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it is called "Bernodebi", which is derived from the Scandinavian name "Beornnoth", a potential Dane who settled and gave his name to the area. As such, the village was historically part of the Danelaw area of England but by 1086 was recorded as in the lordship of William de Percy. In 1821, Barnetby le Wold parish was recorded to contain 45 houses and 316 inhabitants.
