Harworth Bircotes is a civil parish in the district of Bassetlaw in Nottinghamshire, England, centred on the twin villages of Harworth and Bircotes. It sits close to the South Yorkshire border and combines a semi‑rural setting of farmland and green spaces with council‑era housing and characteristic post‑industrial landscapes from its mining past.
Historically the community grew up around coal mining - Harworth Colliery once dominated local life - and since the mine’s closure the area has focused on regeneration, with new housing, business parks and community facilities. Many residents commute to nearby centres such as Doncaster and Worksop, while local clubs and memorials to the mining heritage help sustain a strong communal identity as the parish adapts socially and economically.
