Newark and Sherwood District Council is delighted to announce the return of its flagship business event, the 2026 Economic Growth Conference, taking place on Thursday 8 October at The Pumping House, Ollerton.
For centuries, the Major Oak has stood at the heart of Sherwood Forest, a living bridge between the past and present. This ancient giant, with a canopy stretching nearly 92 feet and a trunk measuring 33 feet around, has always been more than a tree. It has been a landmark, a gathering place, and a keeper of stories.
A brand-new way to explore one of the East Midland’s most unique destinations has arrived, as Newark and Sherwood District Council launches its new official tourism website, Visit Newark and Sherwood: www.visitnewarkandsherwood.co.uk
Newark and Sherwood District Council and Ollerton and Boughton Town Council are celebrating a significant milestone in the transformation of Ollerton town centre, as planning permission has now been granted for the ambitious regeneration scheme.
A number of major regeneration projects across Newark and Sherwood are continuing to make progress, including key developments in Newark, Ollerton and Clipstone.
