Welcome to Haxey Carr

Haxey Carr is a small village located in the county of Lincolnshire, England. The village is situated on the outskirts of the town of Epworth and is known for its beautiful countryside and peaceful surroundings. The village is surrounded by fields and farmland, making it an ideal location for those who enjoy outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and horse riding.

One of the main attractions of Haxey Carr is the Haxey Hood, an annual event that takes place on the 6th of January. The event is a traditional game that has been played in the village for over 700 years and involves two teams of men competing to push a leather tube, known as the hood, to their respective goals. The game is played in the streets of the village and is watched by hundreds of spectators who come from all over the country to witness the spectacle.

Haxey Carr is also home to a number of historic buildings and landmarks, including the St Nicholas Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The church is a beautiful example of Norman architecture and is a popular destination for visitors to the village. Other notable landmarks in Haxey Carr include the Haxey Gate, a 17th-century coaching inn, and the Haxey Windmill, a restored windmill that offers stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
