Caythorpe is a hamlet and
civil parish in Nottinghamshire, England. It is situated north-east from
Nottingham, close to the
River Trent. According to the 2001 census, it had a population of 259, increasing to 271 at the time of the 2011 Census.
The hamlet has a water mill dated 1749. A
windmill stood in a field called Fairholme, later Woolf's Farm. This may be the mill referred to in an advertisement in the Nottingham Review of 1851: "Excellent Windmill containing two pair French Stones, dressing machine etc., cottage, stable, outbuildings, 7 to 8 acres land in occupation of Mr. Arnold." This mill is reputed to have been sold and transferred to Epperstone.
