Meden Vale is a small former colliery village in the valley of the River Meden within the district of Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England. It sits among gentle Nottinghamshire countryside and was largely developed to house miners and their families, so the built environment and street pattern still reflect that industrial past.

Since the decline of deep coal mining in the late 20th century the local economy has diversified, with residents commuting to nearby towns and working in light industry, services or agriculture. The village retains a close-knit community feel with local clubs, a village hall and green spaces, and it appeals to walkers and those who appreciate a quieter, historically rooted place near larger centres such as Mansfield and Worksop.
