Cromwell is a small village and civil parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood in Nottinghamshire, England, set on the eastern bank of the River Trent a short distance from Newark-on-Trent. Its riverside location, with the nearby Cromwell Lock and weir, gives it a strong sense of the Trent valley and makes the area popular with walkers, anglers and birdwatchers.
Historically shaped by agriculture and river trade, the village retains a quiet rural community feel with a parish church, cottages and farmsteads; many residents use nearby market towns for shops and services while enjoying countryside living. The combination of floodplain meadows, river habitats and straightforward road links means Cromwell balances local heritage and leisure appeal with a modest modern local economy.
