Welcome to Maplebeck

Maplebeck is situated in the rolling countryside of the Dukeries, in mid-Nottinghamshire. Population figures as of 2001 census – Maplebeck 74, and with two recent births, the village now numbers some 96 inhabitants. Maplebeck is small but beautiful with large mature trees overhanging the lanes and hedge rows.

We have a Church, Public House, Village Hall, a redundant telephone box, a bus shelter, a post box in a wall that the Posty has to empty on bended knee!

A large Village Green in front of the Church.

St Radegund Church stretching up from the village green.

There are two workshops nestling behind the houses on the lower part of the main street towards Caunton. These are accessed from a farm gate and track .

We only have one road which is named - Church Lane which is a cul-de-sac.

Each year we hold a Village Garden Fete in an idyllic setting which is quintessentially an English country garden.
In 2012 it will be held on 21st July.
