About

Thorneywood lies to the east of Nottingham city centre, bordered by Sherwood and Mapperley Park. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing alongside some inter-war semis. Streets are generally quiet, with local shopping needs met on nearby Mansfield Road. The residential feel is dominant, with several small local parks and greenspaces providing recreation.

A notable feature is its proximity to the Forest Recreation Ground, a large historic park that hosts the annual Goose Fair. The area is well-connected by bus routes into the city. Thorneywood is also known for the distinctive, circular Thorneywood House, a former mansion now divided into apartments, which sits within its own wooded grounds off Edwards Lane.
