Worksop
Worksop ( ) is a market town in the Bassetlaw District in Nottinghamshire, England. It is located east-south-east of Sheffield, close to Nottinghamshire's borders with South Yorkshire and Derbyshire, on the River Ryton and not far from the northern edge of Sherwood Forest. Other nearby towns include Chesterfield, Doncaster, Retford, Gainsborough and Mansfield. Worksop had a population of 41,820 as of the 2011 Census and it is twinned with the German town Garbsen. History Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman history Worksop was part of what was called Bernetseatte (burnt lands) in Anglo-Saxon times.

A number of other recorded place names contain this same personal name element. In ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
