Picturesque Nottinghamshire village with 'pretty' countryside views and 'nice community'

Neighbours have shared what it's like to live in the 'pretty' village full of 'great history'. Shelford is a small village close to the A52 near Radcliffe on Trent which is loved by its residents for its picturesque countryside, old fashioned homes and proximity to the city.

With a few dozen houses in the village, there's a church, bus stop and pub The Earl of Chesterfield. The village is close to the River Trent, only a 20 minute drive from Nottingham, and can be easily reached by main roads, such as the A46 and A52.

Funeral care worker David Mason, 64, has lived in the village for around 12 years. He said: "Basically I used to come through here as I used to live on Mapperley Top, I used to bring the kids down when they were only five to the local pub and always just thought it would be a really nice to live here one day."
