Map of the UK

Clayworth is a small village and civil parish in the Bassetlaw district of Nottinghamshire, England, set in rolling farmland a few miles south of Retford beside the meandering River Idle. The settlement retains a traditional rural feel, with stone and brick cottages, a medieval parish church and several listed buildings grouped around a village green and quiet lanes.

Historically agricultural - the name hints at an enclosure on clayey ground - the community now mixes farming with commuters and small local enterprises, and is popular with walkers exploring the surrounding countryside; a lively village hall and occasional local events reflect a strong community spirit.
