Cottam rests in Nottinghamshire's Bassetlaw district, a quiet pocket of the East Midlands. It lies 10.2 km south of Gainsborough (from Gainsborough: bearing 180°T, OS grid SK 818 798), and is situated east-north-east of Rampton village. The land around Cottam rolls with a gentle, agricultural grace, the fields often a patchwork of greens and golds under the wide, pale sky. The air here carries the faint, earthy scent of cultivated land, a constant reminder of the seasons' slow turning. The houses, a mix of rendered brick and stone, cluster around the village lanes, their windows often catching the soft, diffused light of the English afternoon. A sense of enduring quietude pervades Cottam, a peace that seems to have seeped into the very stone of its older buildings.
