South Normanton West is an electoral ward in the district of Bolsover, in Derbyshire, England. It covers the western side of the village of South Normanton and combines post‑war and more modern housing with pockets of green space and farmland on its edges, sitting close to the county boundary with Nottinghamshire.
Historically the area grew up around coal mining and the industrial heritage still shapes the local streets and community identity; since the collieries closed the local economy has shifted towards light industry, services and commuters working in nearby towns and cities. Community life remains active with village halls, churches and sports clubs sustaining a fairly mixed population and easy access to surrounding countryside for walks and leisure.
