Nottinghamshire, Ceremonial county in East Midlands, England

Nottinghamshire spans across the East Midlands region, sharing borders with South Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Derbyshire, encompassing both urban areas and countryside.

The county's origins trace back to Roman settlements near Mansfield, later becoming part of the Kingdom of Mercia and developing through medieval times.

The region maintains strong connections to the Robin Hood folklore and preserves the historical Sherwood Forest, which influenced literature and local traditions.

The East Midlands Airport provides direct access to Nottinghamshire, while regular train services connect the county to London and other major cities.

The National Water Sports Centre and Trent Bridge cricket ground establish Nottinghamshire as a center for sports competitions and athletic training.
