East Markham is a small village and civil parish in the district of Bassetlaw, Nottinghamshire, England, set in a predominantly agricultural landscape in the north of the county. The village retains a historic core with a parish church and a number of stone cottages and listed buildings, and its position close to regional routes such as the A1 makes it quietly well connected to nearby market towns like Retford.
Locally the community centres on a village hall, school and a couple of pubs, and there are regular village events and fetes that reflect a strong volunteer spirit. Economically the area remains rooted in farming while many residents commute to larger towns for work, and the surrounding countryside is popular with walkers and those seeking a rural base within reach of wider services.
