Shelford is a small, largely rural civil parish in the Borough of Rushcliffe, Nottinghamshire, England, within easy reach of Nottingham. It retains a compact village feel surrounded by farmland and country lanes, with a historic core of houses and farmsteads that reflect its agricultural roots and a number of listed buildings and a parish church that hint at medieval origins.
The community combines traditional village life - a village hall, pub and local events - with a degree of commuter influence from nearby urban centres, so the local economy is a mix of agriculture and residents working elsewhere. Footpaths and quiet roads make it attractive for walkers and cyclists, and an active parish council and volunteers help sustain social activities and conservation of the local character.
