Tips from the Community

Walk The Walk 🌳
May 6, 2025, St. Michael's Church, Farnsfield

The first mention of Farnsfield emerges in 956AD in a document in which King Edwy of Northumbria gave the Danish Archbishop of York, Oscytel, the manor of Southwell, which included the farmstead of Farnsfield. Farnsfield was a small community of farmsteads scraping a living from agriculture in a clearing at the edge of Sherwood Forest. By 1520 Farnsfield was the responsibility of Southwell Minster under the Archbishop of York, Cardinal Wolsey. Most people were farmers and poor land, bad weather, disease and starvation were constant hazards. By the 1600s more specialised trades were developing in Farnsfield including bakers, tailors and shoemakers. By the late 1700s sheep rearing was the main source of income from outside.

The church dates from the 15th century but was rebuilt between 1859 and 1860 by Thomas Chambers Hine and Robert Evans following a fire. Only a fragment of the tower from the 15th-century building survives.

Hexgreave estate was a farm but has been converted into a modern living and working estate with homes and office space available. It's beautiful and well managed with parkland and some nice old buildings. There is also a café as part of the estate, a good stop for a coffee or snack. The café is open Mon to Fri 8:30 - 15:00. The estate grounds are private but the main road through the estate is a bridleway so cycling is permitted. This make a nice route with very few cars but a good surface. There are a few gates to stop cars.
