Rampton and Woodbeck in the district of Bassetlaw, Nottinghamshire, England is a small, largely rural parish centred on the historic village of Rampton and the neighbouring hamlet of Woodbeck. The area retains an agricultural character with lanes, a compact village centre and a handful of listed buildings, while the nearby market town of Retford supplies wider services and transport links.
A defining feature is the presence of the high‑security Rampton Hospital on the edge of Woodbeck, an institution that has shaped the local economy and settlement pattern through staff housing and associated facilities. That combination of quiet village life and a major nearby institution gives the parish an unusual social mix and a distinctive local identity.
