Midville, a small village in Lincolnshire, England about 10 miles (16 km) north of Boston, was an extra-parochial allotment of the East Fen, which was drained between 1802 and 1813, Midville being constituted as a parochial township by an act passed in 1885. The East Fen is between Boston and Spilsby.[1]
Midville church was built 1819-20 and is a plain edifice of Georgian brick.[1]
It was once home to Midville railway station, which opened in 1913 and closed in 1970.[2]
