A little history

The Pilgrim Fathers who sailed on the Mayflower to America in 1620 worshipped at Babworth church near Retford. The group around William Brewster formed their separatist congregation in this area. Retford has one of the finest market places in Nottinghamshire.

Babworth church for the Pilgrim Fathers connection — genuinely moving. The Market Place for local produce. The Chesterfield Canal towpath walk. The town centre for good independent shopping.
