South Clifton is a small, largely rural civil parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood, in Nottinghamshire, England. It sits close to the River Trent and within easy reach of the market town of Newark-on-Trent, giving the area a mix of pleasant riverside scenery, agricultural land and good walking opportunities along the floodplain and riverbanks.
The settlement has a quietly historic character, with traditional farmsteads and older cottages reflecting medieval and post‑medieval roots, and a small, tight‑knit community that combines family farms with residents who commute to nearby towns. The riverside setting brings wildlife interest and occasional flood risk, and the parish’s appeal is largely its unspoilt, rural atmosphere and close connection to the surrounding countryside.
