Map of the UK

Hornby is an electoral ward within the borough of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire, England, and is largely a residential neighbourhood with a mix of older terraces, council housing and some newer developments. It sits close enough to the town centre to benefit from local shops, schools and regular bus links, while also having small pockets of green space and community facilities that local people use for clubs and events.

The area reflects much of the wider district’s industrial past, with historical ties to coal and light manufacturing, and in recent years has seen modest regeneration and community-led activity aimed at improving services and tackling social challenges. Socially it is a mixed community with active local groups, grassroots sports and efforts to enhance local facilities and housing for residents.
