About

Bilsthorpe and Farnsfield lie within the Newark and Sherwood district and form a patchwork of farmland, hedgerows and small woodlands. The area is made up of a number of village centres, linked by lanes and a network of public footpaths and bridleways. Local services concentrate around village halls, primary schools, a handful of shops and pubs, and community-run sports clubs. Agriculture and woodland management shape the land use, and fields are often bounded by hedgerows and mature trees that support local wildlife corridors.

Local landmarks reflect the area’s past and community life. Bilsthorpe retains visible traces of its mining era — the colliery site closed in 1997 and a miners’ memorial marks that history — while village green spaces and sports fields are used for seasonal events. Farnsfield’s parish church of St Michael, with medieval origins, stands near the village centre beside a traditional pond and meeting place. Regular community gatherings, volunteer groups and maintained footpaths make the two villages active at a local level and provide direct access into the surrounding countryside.
