Map of the UK

Blyth is a small, largely rural parish in the Bassetlaw district of Nottinghamshire, England, centred on the village which sits by the River Ryton. The landscape is a mix of arable fields, hedgerows and riverside meadows that make it popular for walkers and wildlife, while its position within easy reach of market towns such as Retford and Worksop gives residents relatively straightforward access to larger services and rail links.

Locally the area has clear historic roots and retains a number of older buildings and a traditional parish feel; agriculture remains important to the local economy but there is also a commuter element and small local businesses. Community life tends to revolve around the village hall, pub and seasonal events, and there’s ongoing interest in conserving the riverside habitats and rural character of the parish.
