Car Colston is a small, historic village and civil parish in the district of Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, England, set among rolling farmland not far from the market town of Bingham and the gentle landscapes of the Vale of Belvoir. It has medieval roots and a compact street pattern of stone cottages and a parish church, with several listed buildings that reflect a long local history and a typically rural Nottinghamshire character.

Traditionally agricultural, the local economy is now a mix of farming and residents who commute to nearby towns and the city of Nottingham. Community life remains important: the village keeps a quiet, conservation-area feel with a village hall and occasional local events, making it popular with walkers, families and anyone seeking a close‑knit rural community not far from regional centres.
