Originally a township of Caistor, it was briefly a civil parish but since 1932 forms part of the civil parish of Grasby (where the population is included).

Clixby is listed in the 1086 Domesday Book, with Lord of the Manor as King William I. At the beginning of the 18th century Clixby was the seat of Sir John Fitzwilliam.

The parish church was dedicated to All Hallows and dates from the 13th century with a 19th-century restoration by Hodgson Fowler. It was declared redundant in 1973.
