About Worksop - show infohide info

Worksop is a town in the county of Nottinghamshire, in the district of Bassetlaw. The town lies on the River Ryton, at the northern edge of Sherwood Forest. Worksop has an estimated population of 39,800 inhabitants The town is known to have existed around the time of the Domesday book, when it was a considerable settlement called Werchesope. This period was humourously depicted in the popular childrens TV show 'Maid Marian and Her Merry Men'. After the conquest in 1103, William de Lovetot established a castle and Augustinian Priory in the town, and so Worksop subsequently grew into a market town, and had a Royal Charter granted in 1296. For centuries, the town's economy revolved around its market and agricultural surroundings; even the towns industries (such as malting, milling and timberwork) revloved around its agricultural background. The building of the Chesterfield Canal (in 1777), and later the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway (in 1849) gave the town a boost, as trade, commerce and people were attracted to the town. When a siazeable coal seam was discovered, growth further increased as people moved to the town to get jobs in the mines. New houses were built to house the influx in workers. By 1901, the towns population had grown to over 20,000 inhabitants, from just over 3000 in 1801. The coal industry in Worksop has now declined, however unlike many towns, Worksop has bounced back with a number of industrial and commercial enterprises on various estates. The largest industries in the town include warehousing and distribution, and food and drink manuacturing, with a number of smaller businesses occupied in electronics, engineering and clothes and textiles. The traditional market is still held on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Worksop sees services between Lincoln Central and Adwick hourly in each direction, operated by Northern, and is also a terminus for some trains from Nottingham, operated by Central Trains. Nearby towns to Worksop include Sheffield, Notttingham, Rotherham, Chesterfield, Mansfield, Retford, Lincoln, Newark, Maltby and Gainsborough.
