It lies between the towns of Dinnington and Worksop at an elevation of around 60 metres above sea level, and has a population of 1,746 at the 2011 Census. The village originated as a medieval farming hamlet of the manor of Anston, nestled amongst the ancient woodland of which a few patches remain. The village grew rapidly in the late 19th century when a colliery was sunk at Dinnington. The village now serves as a commuter base for travellers between nearby towns.
