Glenville (also Lickskillet) is an unincorporated community in McLean County, Kentucky, United States.

In 1859 the hamlet was renamed Glenville for the large number of Glenn families in the area (likely descendants of Kentucky pioneer, David Glenn, who moved to the area in the 1790s)[3] but was reverted to Long Falls Creek in 1864 and changed one final time to Glenville in 1884.

In the early 1900s, the community was commonly called Lickskillet (or Lick Skillet) for the scarcity of food in the area at the time, which led to its discontinuation in 1905.

[4] Glenville is located on the northern border of McLean County, and is neighbored by Daviess County to the north, Tichenor to the east, Buel to the south, Calhoun to the southwest, and Guffie to the west.
