The earliest church on the site is believed to have been founded in 627 by Paulinus, the first Archbishop of York, when he visited the area while baptising believers in the River Trent. The legend is commemorated in the Minster's baptistry window. In 956 King Eadwig gave land in Southwell to Oskytel, Archbishop of York, on which a minster church was established. The Domesday Book of 1086 recorded the Southwell manor in great detail. The Norman reconstruction of the church began in 1108, probably as a rebuilding of the Anglo-Saxon church, starting at the east end so that the high altar could be used as soon as possible and the Saxon building was dismantled as work progressed. Many stones from this earlier Anglo-Saxon church were reused in the construction. The church was originally attached to the Archbishop of York's Palace which stood next door and is now ruined.

A Local Nature Reserve in Nottinghamshire The Netherfield Lagoons, Local Nature Reserve is situated on the Trent Valley Flood Plain in Nottinghamshire and has been partly used as a dump for coal slurry but with two remaining gravel ponds. The two slurry pits are separated by a raised causeway, which is elevated some 50 feet (15 m) above the pits, giving a commanding view of the area. The largest tank is virtually full but retains some water, with muddy edges attractive to waders and roosting gulls and terns. The smaller tank is mainly deep water, attracting good numbers of wildfowl, with smaller birds, especially warblers, feeding and breeding around the tank edges. The site consists roughly of three compartments, the Slurry Lagoon, the Deep Pit and the two Gravel Pits. (source: https://www.gedlingconservationtrust.org/netherfield-lagoons/)

Bike parking, plenty of space, its surprising who you bump into when your sat refueling! Cakes and sausage sandwiches are great ( They do other things that look good but I'm a simple man) and I always enjoy the coffee.

They provide lots of bike parking and can even supply locks should you forget yours. The food and drink is awesome too (their bacon rolls rock).

Great food with a great setting, well worth a visit because I really can’t fault the place!

Lovely location on the Trent. Lots of easy, flat, traffic-free roads around here. Regularly use this as a lunch stop on rides in the southern half of the Vale of Belvoir. There is an easy 30 mile loop to Newark and back, going through quiet lanes up one side of the Trent and back down the other. I have used the riverside Unicorn pub as an overnight base for cycle-touring in this area.

Very nice village next to the Trent. Easily accessed by the cycle way. Suitable for all riders.

A lovely riverside village with a pub and a nice pier - ideal for taking a good photo of your machine!!

well worth a visit

Absolutely worth the slog is the downhill charge into Southwell. This climb is featured in Simon Warren’s greatest climbs series. It’s tough but doable.

Southwell has a number of interesting historic buildings, such as the old coaching inn of the Saracen's Head and Burgage Manor, vacation spot for Lord Byron. Though the jewel in Southwell's crown is undoubtedly St Mary's Minster. One of the smallest cathedrals in the country, it is nonetheless one of the most interesting from an architectural perspective.

Depends which way your travelling. Its labled as 12% so its a sharp climb or a rapid decent. the decent has to be treated with respect as there is a nasty corner to catch you out mid drop. The hill is covered by a tree canopy than can leave the surface greasy even on a dry day. The road surface has been deteriorating for some time, so be careful. on the way up there is a gentle begining, then it rises rapidly with the aforementioned bend in the middle. not that long but the gentle begining may have taken a little more out of you than you expected. Beware the impatient drivers who are tempted to try and pass and also get caught by the bend if the road is new to them. Nice roll into Southwell makes it worth the effort though.

It's a good ride and a hard hill to test your self on

Great coffee, cakes & cycle-friendly

Having done both from opposite directions, first time by accident and the second because of forgetfulness, I can confirm that they not for the faint hearted. I would also add two stretches l did Saturday, the road from Blidworth to the A60 at Ravenshead

Absolutely fantastic Cafe, fantastic food, fantastic staff and coffee is perfect.

Very cheeky hill. 12% gradient. The ride off the top is worth the effort.

Very friendly pro cycling cafe. Bit on the pricey side but still worth it.

You can pre book a large social table if going as a big group

There's always a warm welcome at Cafe Velo Verde!
