Staythorpe is a small riverside hamlet in the district of Newark and Sherwood, Nottinghamshire, England, sitting amid low-lying farmland and floodplain on the banks of the River Trent. It’s a quietly rural spot a few miles from Newark-on-Trent, with narrow lanes, agricultural views and the kind of sparse population typical of Nottinghamshire villages beside the Trent.
The settlement is best known for the electricity generation complex - Staythorpe Power Station - a long-established industrial landmark that has been redeveloped in recent decades and provides local employment, creating a striking contrast between industry and the surrounding countryside. Historically the river and nearby crossings shaped local life, and today community and social ties tend to link Staythorpe closely with neighbouring villages and the market town of Newark.
