In Nottinghamshire the romance of history and legend and the tranquillity of country life contrast with the dour grandeur of its industry, but its many and varied aspects only add to the county's interest and appeal. Remote rural villages are to be found in the Vale of Belvoir and along the Trent to the east, while industrialised towns are in the west. The city of Nottinghamshire, 'Queen of the Midlands', lies in the south and Sherwood Forest and the Dukeries to the north, with Southwell and its beautiful minster in the middle. Relics of the industrial past have been transformed; canal towpaths and deserted railway tracks make interesting footpaths and disused mines and gravel pits have become country parks and nature reserves.
