Welcome to Selston

Selston is a village located in the Ashfield district of Nottinghamshire, England. It is situated approximately 4 miles north of the town of Eastwood and 5 miles east of the city of Nottingham. The village has a population of around 7,000 people and is known for its rich history and beautiful countryside. Selston is surrounded by green fields and woodland, making it a popular destination for walkers and nature lovers.

The village has a number of amenities, including a post office, library, and several shops and pubs. There is also a primary school and a secondary school, which serves the surrounding area. Selston is well-connected to the rest of Nottinghamshire, with regular bus services to nearby towns and cities. The village is also close to the M1 motorway, providing easy access to the wider region.

Selston has a fascinating history, with evidence of human settlement dating back to the Bronze Age. The village was once a thriving mining community, with several collieries operating in the area. Today, the former mining sites have been transformed into nature reserves and country parks, providing a haven for wildlife and a popular destination for visitors. Selston is also home to several historic buildings, including St. Helen's Church, which dates back to the 12th century, and Selston Old Hall, a Grade II listed building that was once the home of the local lord of the manor.
