Map of the UK

Egmanton is a small village and civil parish set in the rolling agricultural landscape of north Nottinghamshire, within the Newark and Sherwood district of England. It sits amid farmland and lanes rather than a built-up centre, giving it a quiet, rural character while remaining within reasonable driving distance of larger market towns.

Despite its size the village has an interesting historic note: the parish church is associated with a medieval shrine to Our Lady that made Egmanton a local pilgrimage site in past centuries. Today the economy is largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns, and the community retains a village-centre feel with a parish church and local activities that reflect its long-established rural social life.
