Gamston is a village and suburb in the borough of Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, England, sitting on the southern fringe of West Bridgford and just a few miles from Nottingham. It occupies a semi‑rural spot by the River Trent with a mix of older village streets, recent housing developments and some surrounding farmland; Nottingham Airport lies close by and good road links make it popular with commuters into the city.
The community is largely residential with local shops, a primary school and active community groups, while wider cultural and sporting attractions - notably Trent Bridge and the amenities of Nottingham - are on the doorstep. Historically a small agricultural settlement, Gamston today combines a quiet village feel with easy access to urban employment and services.
