Annesley sits on the edge of the Ashfield district, about ten miles north of Nottingham, where the urban sprawl finally gives way to the ridges of the Hidden Valley. It is functionally split into two parts: the traditional village of Annesley, home to the 13th-century All Saints Church ruins, and the later settlement of Annesley Woodhouse. Historically, the area’s identity was forged by the local colliery and the ancestral estate of the Chaworth-Musters family, who were famously linked to Lord Byron via his unrequited love for Mary Chaworth. Today, the landscape is defined by the extensive Annesley Forest and the regenerated business park that occupies the old pit site. Geographically, it is a practical spot; it’s positioned just off Junction 27 of the M1, and the nearby Kirkby-in-Ashfield railway station provides a direct link into the city on the Robin Hood Line. It’s a place where you can walk through quiet woodland or visit the local library in the morning, yet be in the centre of Nottingham or Mansfield within twenty minutes.
