Henry Treece (22 December 1911 – 10 June 1966) was a British poet and writer who also worked as a teacher and editor.
In 1939 he married Mary Woodman and settled in Lincolnshire as a teacher at Barton-upon-Humber Grammar School.
He appeared in the 1949 The New British Poets: an anthology edited by Kenneth Rexroth; but from 1952 with The Dark Island he devoted himself to fiction.
[4] In World War II he served as an intelligence officer in the RAF and helped John Pudney edit Air Force Poetry.
[8] Treece's residency in Barton-upon-Humber is recorded by a blue plaque on East Acridge House, erected by the Civic Society in 2010.
