About Haxey

Haxey is a North Lincolnshire market town near the Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire borders, reached via Junction 2 of the M180 and the A161 through Epworth. The town sits on slightly raised ground that was once an island in medieval marshland, with good views across the surrounding farmland. It's famous for the annual Hood Game each January 6th, where locals engage in a chaotic, hours-long scrum to carry a leather hood between village pubs.
