Colwick is a civil parish in the Gedling district of Nottinghamshire, England, situated on the eastern fringe of Nottingham beside the River Trent. Its floodplain and former gravel workings now form Colwick Country Park, a popular local spot for watersports, birdwatching and riverside walks that give the area a strong recreational character.
The parish combines suburban housing with light industry around the Colwick Industrial Estate, while historic buildings such as Colwick Hall hint at its riverfront estate past. Local clubs, the park’s leisure facilities and good transport links to the city centre create a community where urban fringe living meets river landscape and recreational economy.
