}}East Ferry is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.[1] It is situated {{convert|6|mi|km|0}} west from Scotter, and on the eastern bank of the River Trent opposite Owston Ferry. The population of the civil parish (including Wildsworth) as at the 2011 census was 204.[2]

A Tidal bore known as the Trent Aegir can be observed on this stretch of the Trent.[3][4]

History

East Ferry was founded in the 13th century around a ferry crossing;[5] the ferry ran until the 1940s.[3] Previously it was also known as East Kinnard's Ferry,[6] and was part of the Corringham Wapentake. A Medieval chapel in the village, dedicated to St Laurence, is described as decayed in the 16th century, but survived into the late 18th century.[5] There were a further two chapels: one to St Mary (rebuilt about 1800), the other for Primitive Methodists.[6]

In 1872 East Ferry was described as "a township in Scotter parish, Lincolnshire; 6 miles West of Scotter. Pop. 104."[7]

An ancient logboat, found in 1903, was once in Scunthorpe Museum, but is now lost.[8]
