The Newlands ward sits within Forest Town on the edge of Mansfield in Nottinghamshire, England. It is largely residential, with much of its housing dating from the twentieth century when the area expanded to serve nearby coal-mining communities, so the ward still carries traces of that industrial past.
Today Newlands combines pockets of green space, local shops, schools and community centres, and benefits from a number of active voluntary groups focused on regeneration and social activities. Many residents commute into Mansfield or further afield as employment has shifted from heavy industry to services and retail, and the ward retains a distinct local identity rooted in its mining heritage and community networks.
