About

Forest Town and Newlands form a residential sector of Mansfield with a mix of housing that reflects the town’s coalfield past. Streets of older terraced cottages sit alongside post-war and more recent semi-detached homes, and pockets of green space and playing fields are woven through the estates. Local provision includes primary schools, community halls and small retail parades serving daily needs; remnants of the area’s mining history are visible in building styles and in street names that recall collieries and pit workings.

Public transport links run from the neighbourhood into Mansfield town centre and to nearby employment areas, making car-free journeys practical for many residents. Community groups use sports pitches and village halls for clubs and events, and the layout of lanes and short connecting routes gives the area a compact, walkable feel. Planning and incremental redevelopment over the years have kept the basic street pattern while introducing newer housing and renewed shopfronts along the main routes.
