Staythorpe is a very small, largely rural civil parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood, Nottinghamshire, England, lying on the banks of the River Trent a short distance from villages such as Kelham and Averham and within easy reach of Newark-on-Trent and Nottingham. The landscape is low-lying floodplain and farmland, giving a quiet, open character punctuated by riverside habitats and views towards nearby historic sites like Kelham Hall.
What makes Staythorpe notable is the contrast between its tiny population and the large energy infrastructure on the riverbank: a modern power-station complex dominates the parish and provides local employment, while the surrounding countryside retains its agricultural feel and interest for wildlife. The result is an intriguing mix of industrial activity, historic rural roots and riverside nature within a compact area of the Trent valley.
