Property, Houses and Flats for Sale in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire

Mansfield takes its name from the River Maun and has a population of 70,000. Known as 'The King's Great Manor in the Forest of Sherwood', in 1337, Mansfield stone was used to build the Chapter-house at Southwell Minster and, a few years later, the stone was quarried for improvements to Nottingham Castle. In the mid 18th century the Industrial Revolution brought wealth to Mansfield which has, subsequently, adapted well to the collapse of coal mining and other associated industries.
