Mansfield (near Nottingham) is a large market town and the administrative centre of Mansfield District in Nottinghamshire, England. Let's have a look around the town centre!
Also watch our video of Nottingham Christmas Market - • NOTTINGHAM CHRISTMAS M...
We thought we'd venture to Nottinghamshire to wander round Mansfield Town Centre to see what's there, what shops and markets we can find and see what's happening there today!
Mansfield is the largest town in the wider Mansfield Urban Area. It gained the Royal Charter of a market town in 1227. The town lies in the Maun Valley, 12 miles north of Nottingham and near Sutton-in-Ashfield
Mansfield is Nottinghamshire’s largest market town, located right on the edge of the beautiful countryside, perfect for relaxing walks and easy access to woodland areas of Sherwood Forest. Spend a few hours exploring Thieves Wood and Fountaindale, both located a few miles to the south of the town centre with close links to the Robin Hood legend.
On the outskirts of Mansfield as you venture closer to Sherwood Forest, you’ll find Robin Hood's Wheelgate Park, a theme park with lots of rides and activities for children aged 5-12. Take a ride on the Mini Mine coaster or squirt each other on the bumper boats. Close by is White Post Farm Centre, giving you the opportunity to get up close to some beautiful animals, including goats, deer, pigs, meerkats and even wallabies.
Take the short walk down Leeming Street in Mansfield into the town centre where you will be greeted with an excellent shopping experience. The market in Mansfield is still a very vibrant place for traders and remains at the heart of the town centre.
Just outside of Mansfield, in Mansfield Woodhouse, you'll find i-Jump Trampoline Park, which is the perfect place for all the family to get fit and have fun. With over 55 interconnected trampolines, this is the perfect place for you to put your aerobatic skills to the test!
With a very vibrant nightlife, a large range of shops and a wealth of attractions close by, Mansfield remains a popular and proud place for many residents. We love Mansfield and if you head there, you’ll understand why.
Mansfield, town and district, administrative and historic county of Nottinghamshire, England, on the River Maun. Mansfield was the chief town of Sherwood Forest-the legendary base for the activities of Robin Hood, the medieval robber and popular hero-and the forest court was held in the town’s Moot Hall (built 1752).
The population of Mansfield grew with the 19th-century expansion of coal mining and the hosiery industry, and both remain major local employers of labour. Hard red and white sandstone quarried near the town of Mansfield Woodhouse, 2 miles (3 km) north of Mansfield, was used to build the Houses of Parliament at Westminster. The district also includes the town of Warsop and part of Sherwood Forest.

I remember when Mansfield was a thriving market town, every shop was busy and the marketplace was absolutely full of wonderful stalls. It used to be such a prosperous town, now it looks like a ghost town. So sad.

My hometown. It has really suffered from a LOT of neglect, and the loss of the big names like BHS, Debenhams, Too Shop, etc, etc - there are a multitude of empty shops and boarded up windows. Like a lot of places our local Council overcharges on rents to businesses and market traders, it’s left a once beautiful, vibrant and proud town little more than a rundown dump. It’s a shame - we have some brilliant ppl living here, and proud locals who despair at the decline. But we have a great MP, who is trying to raise our little town back up. Hope he succeeds.

I live in Sutton in Ashfield nearby but I have also lived and worked in Mansfield before. The years have not been kind to either. Lack of funding and investment really kill these kinds of towns. The lack of big named retail doesn't help either.

The town was already in a state before the Conservatives returned to power in 2010. The financial crash of 08 hit the town hard and has never recovered since. The smoking ban brought in the year prior under Labour saw the closure of a lot of the town's pubs and clubs. The Covid-19 pandemic has only made it much worse.

Labour did nothing for Mansfield either. The council has always been Labour dominated, a brief period under independents. We've had an executive mayor since 2006, dominated by Labour. We had a Labour MP for thirty years, everyone called him 'silent knight' because he never spoke in parliament. The problem with Mansfield like most former industrial towns is bad management. It starts from early age, kids soon realise there's little opportunity locally, the good paying jobs went with manufacturing thirty years ago, so they leave the town. The town then becomes an ideal place to put people, whether that be refugees or homeless from other areas, or even Londoners moving up to a plush brand new estate because it's so much cheaper. With this the soul of the place disappears, the community is gone and in its place is nothing but a void.

A lot of posters are saying how rundown it looks. I can not agree. It has a magnificent market square and an impressive viaduct complementing well-kept streets that are free of graffiti and general urban clutter. Even the modern shopping centre blends in with the architectural mood of its surroundings. Let us not forget that this was shot on a damp, cloudy day.
