Rushcliffe, Administrative borough in Nottinghamshire, England
The River Trent forms the northern boundary of Rushcliffe, which contains rolling uplands, agricultural lands, and flat plains across 158 square miles.
The borough was established on April 1, 1974, through the Local Government Act 1972, merging Basford Rural District, Bingham Rural District, and West Bridgford Urban District.
The Trent Bridge Cricket Ground in West Bridgford hosts international matches, while City Ground serves as the stadium for Nottingham Forest Football Club.
The Rushcliffe Arena, opened in December 2016, functions as both the council headquarters and a leisure center for residents of the borough.
The borough's name translates to 'cliff where brushwood grows,' derived from Old English words 'hris' for brushwood and 'clif' for cliff.
