Tollerton, a leafy village situated in the heart of Rushcliffe, was recently revealed to be the safest area in Nottinghamshire. Our reporter, Joel Moore, went to find out just how safe it is.
It was first thing in the morning but my hand barely had the chance to recoil before the door swung open. More or less every one was opened with speed and a smile, not always so common for a journalist.
This lack of door-answering hesitancy was perhaps a sign of security as I tottered through Tollerton, trying to gauge from residents what it was that made it so safe. The answer, as you would expect, was its close-knit nature and relative affluence compared to much of the city and county.
