Carlton Forest in Bassetlaw, Nottinghamshire, England is a modest but well‑used patch of mixed woodland and green space close to the village of Carlton-in-Lindrick. Set on the gently undulating farmland of north Nottinghamshire, it provides local walking routes, birdlife and a pocket of semi‑rural tranquillity within easy reach of the market towns of Worksop and Retford.
The forest sits on the northern edge of the historic Sherwood Forest landscape and reflects the area’s long rural past, where woodland, farming and later mining and industry have all left traces on the local economy and community. Today it’s valued mainly for recreation, wildlife and small‑scale local events, and acts as a useful community resource for residents and visitors wanting a taste of Nottinghamshire’s countryside.
