Farnsfield is a largely rural ward in the district of Newark and Sherwood, within Nottinghamshire, England, centred on a traditional village with a village green, parish church and a scattering of listed buildings that reflect its long local history. The landscape is gently rolling countryside, with agriculture still important alongside small local businesses and a number of residents who commute to nearby towns and Nottingham for work.

Community life is lively for a small place, marked by local clubs, events and parish activities that keep a strong sense of village identity, while proximity to features of the wider district, including parts of Sherwood Forest, gives easy access to attractive walking country and heritage sites.
