North Owersby is a village in the civil parish of Owersby in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England, about 6 miles (9.7 km) north of the town of Market Rasen. North Owersby was a separate civil parish from 1866 to 1936.[1]

The parish church is dedicated to Saint Martin and is a grade II listed building which was totally rebuilt 1762 using medieval ironstone masonry, with 19th c alterations. The font dates from the 18th century.[2]

There are two grade II listed farmhouses in the village, Hall Farm,[3] and Manor Farm both of which were built of yellow brick around 1835.[4]
