The village and civil parish of Walkeringham sits in the north of the Bassetlaw district of Nottinghamshire, England, close to the River Trent and the border with Lincolnshire. It occupies a pleasant rural setting between the market towns of Gainsborough and Retford, with an agricultural heritage and surrounding arable land and riverside habitats that are popular with walkers and birdwatchers.
Walkeringham retains a small historic core of traditional buildings and a parish church alongside more recent housing; local life is oriented around a village hall, community groups and occasional events, while many residents commute to nearby towns for work. The mix of quiet country lanes, river access and relatively easy links to regional centres gives Walkeringham a relaxed village atmosphere with practical access to services.
