Whatton-in-the-Vale is a small village and civil parish in the Rushcliffe district of Nottinghamshire, England, sitting in the low-lying agricultural landscape of the Vale of Belvoir. It lies a short distance from the market town of Bingham and within easy reach of Nottingham, the surrounding countryside marked by arable fields, hedgerows and a compact village core of traditional cottages and farm buildings.
The village has medieval roots and retains a strong community feel with local clubs and events centred on its village amenities; the historic parish church and conservation of older buildings hint at that long history. On the outskirts lies HM Prison Whatton, a notable modern institution that provides local employment and shapes part of the parish’s contemporary character alongside its continuing agricultural economy.
