The population of the civil parish (including Langford) at the 2011 Census was 165.[1] It is located on the east of the River Trent, less than half a mile from the riverside and 4 miles north of Newark-on-Trent. The parish church of St Giles is an Early Tudor rebuild of a 13th-century church. The Lancashire wool merchant John Barton was responsible for the rebuilding. He died in 1491, and is buried in the chancel with his wife. In a window of his house at Holme is inscribed the verse: I thanke God, and ever shall, It is the sheep have paid for all.[2] Holme was historically a chapelry in the ancient parish of North Muskham. Until about 1575 it lay on the west side of the River Trent, but there was then a cataclysmic flood which changed the course of the river.[3] Holme was therefore separated by the river from the rest of the parish. In 1866 Holme became a separate civil parish.[4] The last known catch of a sturgeon on the Trent occurred in 1902 near the village, the fish was eight and a half feet long and weighed 250 pounds.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11124695&c=Holme&d=16&e=62&g=6457913&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1460308580266&enc=1|title=Civil Parish population 2011|accessdate=10 April 2016|publisher=Office for National Statistics|work=Neighbourhood Statistics}} 2. ^{{cite book |last=Pevsner |first=Nikolaus |year=1979 |title=The Buildings of England: Nottinghamshire |page=145 |place=Harmondsworth |publisher=Penguin }} 3. ^Winthorpe Community Website: Langford Church History 4. ^Vision of Britain website 5. ^{{cite book |last=Stone |first=Richard |year=2005 |title=River Trent |publisher=Phillimore |isbn= 1860773567|pages=101–102}} External links{{Commons category inline|Holme, Nottinghamshire}}{{Nottinghamshire-geo-stub}} 2 : Villages in Nottinghamshire|Civil parishes in Nottinghamshire |
