About Newark On Trent - show infohide info
Newark (also Newark-on-Trent) is a market town in Nottinghamshire in the East Midlands area of England, located on the River Trent, the River Devon also runs through the town. Situated at the intersection of the Great North Road and the Fosse Way, Newark originally grew around Newark Castle, now ruined, and a large marketplace, now lined with historic buildings. Newark has a population of 25,376. Newark's position as one of the few bridges on the Trent in the area, its location along the Great North Road (the A1), and later with the advance of rail transport being at the junction between the East Coast Main Line, and the route from Nottingham to Lincoln has informed its growth and development. Originally a centre for the wool and cloth trade it industrialised to some extent during the Victorian era and later, with an iron works, engineering, brewing, and a sugar refinery. It was a major town standing for the Royalist cause during the Civil War, only surrendering finally when Charles I himself ordered it. The former East Coast Main Line runs through the town, with Newark North Gate railway station providing links to London, Leeds, Newcastle and Edinburgh. Newark Castle railway station lies on the Sheffield - Lincoln line. The A1 and A46 roads have bypasses around Newark. Nearby towns include Lincoln, Mansfield, Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottingham, Grantham, Sleaford, Hucknall and Beeston.
