Kelham is a small rural parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood in Nottinghamshire, England. Set by the floodplain of the River Trent and surrounded by farmland, the settlement is dominated by the impressive nineteenth‑century Gothic revival country house, Kelham Hall, which has long been the most conspicuous historic landmark in the area.
The community is largely agricultural with a modest population and a quiet village atmosphere; in recent years Kelham Hall’s use for events and hospitality has brought visitors and helped the local economy, while nearby Newark provides shops, services and rail connections. Local life centres on the parish church and occasional community events, reflecting the social character of small English midlands villages.
