Simpson ParkHarron HomesAbout Bassetlaw
Bassetlaw is a district in the north of Nottinghamshire, bordering South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Lincolnshire. Worksop is home to the council, and Retford, Tuxford and Harworth Bircotes are its other towns, with many villages and open country around them.
Worksop, on the River Ryton, sits close to the northern fringe of Sherwood Forest. The nave and west towers of its Augustinian priory church, founded around 1103, survived the dissolution, and the town is known as the Gateway to the Dukeries after the former ducal estates to its south. Retford lies on the River Idle. The district is named after the medieval wapentake of Bassetlaw, which covered much the same ground.
Clumber Park, in the Dukeries near Worksop, was the seat of the Dukes of Newcastle and has belonged to the National Trust since 1946. Its Lime Tree Avenue, planted in 1840, runs for two miles. North-west of Retford, the Idle Valley Nature Reserve is a wetland made from old gravel workings along the river, managed by Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust. The Chesterfield Canal passes through both Worksop and Retford.
Retford station is a junction. LNER trains on the East Coast Main Line run to London King's Cross, and the Sheffield to Lincoln line crosses here. Worksop is on that line too, with Northern trains to Sheffield, Leeds and Lincoln, and is the end of the Robin Hood line from Nottingham by way of Mansfield. The A1 bypasses Retford.
