In 1823 Kilnsea was a civil parish in the Wapentake and Liberty of Holderness. The parish church, dedicated to Saint Helen, was close to the cliff and in a "state of dilapidation" and "dangerous condition". Repairs were considered usless with the expectation that the sea, which had already swept away the graveyard, would take the church "in a short time". Population in 1823 was 196.[2]
