The town appears in the Domesday Book as Escumetorp, which is Old Norse for "Skuma's village". Ironstone was mined in the area as early as the Roman occupation, but the deposits lay forgotten until the 19th century. The rediscovery of iron ore resulted in the development of an iron and steel industry and rapid population growth. Despite decline in the 1980s, the steel industry is still the major employer, but there are now a variety of industries, including: electronics, food, plastics, and clothing. Also see Scunthorpe.
