Clipstone is a village and civil parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood, in Nottinghamshire, England. It sits close to the edge of Sherwood Forest and the former Dukeries landscape, with a mix of farmland and pockets of woodland giving a quietly rural feel despite good road links to nearby towns.
The village’s modern identity was shaped by 20th‑century coal mining - the site of Clipstone Colliery and its headstocks remain an important local landmark - and since pit closures the community has focused on regeneration, housing and local services. Many residents commute to Mansfield and Nottingham, while village life centres on community halls, sports clubs and the nearby countryside for leisure and outdoor activities.
