Worksop, Market town in Bassetlaw, England

Worksop stands at the northern edge of Nottinghamshire, positioned along the River Ryton between Sheffield and Nottingham with direct access to Sherwood Forest.

The town's market heritage dates to 1296 when King Edward I granted a charter for a market during the Feast of St Cuthbert.

The traditional open-air market operates three days per week, bringing together merchants selling fresh produce, fish, textiles, and local specialties.

The Priory Centre transformation includes an indoor market space, food court, bowling alley, climbing wall, and play areas funded by a £17.9 million investment.

The town maintains strong connections to medieval history through its Augustinian priory, established in 1103 by William de Lovetot.
