Gonalston is a small rural parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood, in Nottinghamshire, England, lying close to the village of Lowdham. It occupies gently undulating farmland typical of the East Midlands and feels very much like a traditional agricultural settlement, with a scattering of historic houses and farmsteads rather than a dense centre.
The community is small and largely residential, with much of the local economy historically based on farming and now supplemented by people commuting into Nottingham and neighbouring towns. The parish retains a quiet, historic character - parish church and a number of listed buildings give a sense of continuity, and the local social life is shaped by village events and the rhythms of the surrounding countryside.
