Tollerton is a small village and civil parish in the Borough of Rushcliffe, in Nottinghamshire, England, lying a short distance from the city of Nottingham. It feels typically English - a mix of older stone and brick houses, a village hall and church that help bind a close-knit community - while remaining within easy reach of urban amenities, so many residents commute into the city for work.
The village is perhaps best known locally for its aviation connections: RAF Tollerton was active in the twentieth century and the former airfield now operates as a small civil airfield commonly referred to as Nottingham Airport, giving the locality a distinctive economic and social tie to general aviation. Daily life blends rural character with commuter and aviation-linked employment, and village events and clubs around the hall and church provide much of the community activity.
