Map of the UK

Fledborough is a very small, rural parish in the district of Bassetlaw, Nottinghamshire, in England, sitting beside the floodplain of the River Trent close to the border with Lincolnshire. The landscape is largely agricultural, with riverside meadows and quiet lanes that attract walkers, birdwatchers and those seeking a peaceful stretch of countryside away from larger towns.

The parish’s most eye-catching feature is the disused railway viaduct that spans the River Trent, a striking Victorian-era structure that draws photographers and railway enthusiasts. Socially and economically the area is small-scale and community-focused, with historic buildings and a sparsely populated, village-like character that ties it to neighbouring settlements in Bassetlaw.
