Principal towns: Nottingham Mansfield Newark Southwell
Welcome to Nottinghamshire, traditional home of outlaw hero, Robin Hood . Situated in the heart of England, Nottinghamshire is a county of contrasts and surprises; from the rolling farmland of the Vale of Belvoir in the south, through the ancient oaks of Sherwood Forest and on to the 'dukeries' estates and parklands in the north. Sherwood Forest today is a protected site of special interest, famed for its natural habitat as much as the connections with Robin Hood. An exhibition portrays life and times in medieval Sherwood at the Forest Visitor Centre. A Robin Hood Festival takes place each summer, offering the spectacle of jousting, archery and falconry. Further attractions associated with Robin Hood are 'The Tales of Robin Hood' in Nottingham and 'The World of Robin Hood' near Ollerton.
North Nottinghamshire was the home of the Pilgrim Father movement, religious separatists who subsequently sailed to Massachussetts on the Mayflower. Churches used by these families can be visited today.
The market towns of Newark and Southwell are delightful historic settlements. Newark's castle sits on the banks of the River Trent as an imposing reminder of the role of this garrison town in the English Civil War. Newark is now a vibrant market town with narrow streets and a thriving antiques trade. Southwell is a Minster town with a Norman church said to be the finest of its type in Britain. Famous connections abound in these quiet streets, Charles I spent his last night of freedom at the half timbered Saracen's Head Hotel , Lord Byron , the romantic poet visited Southwell from his family home at nearby Newstead Abbey. Further literary connections can be explored at Eastwood, birthplace of D H Lawrence , who used the Nottinghamshire landscape as the inspiration for many of his novels.
Nottinghamshire is readily accessible from most parts of Britain. The M1 and A1 routes both pass through the county. Both Nottingham and Newark are served by fast rail connections to London. International flights enter Birmingham from North America, whilst East Midlands Airport is a convenient European gateway.
