Headon Nottinghamshire Map

About Headon

Headon rests quietly in the Bassetlaw district, a small pocket of Nottinghamshire where the land rolls gently. It lies 6.1 km south-east of Retford (from Retford: bearing 135°T, OS grid SK 749 768), and is situated north-north-east of Askham village. The fields surrounding Headon, often a rich, dark loam, seem to hold the diffused light of the East Midlands, giving them a subtle warmth even on overcast days. Though not marked by grand edifices, Headon possesses a certain understated charm, its houses and farmsteads appearing as if they have grown organically from the soil over generations. The air here carries the faint, earthy scent of cultivated fields, a reminder of the agricultural life that has long shaped this corner of England. The quietude of Headon offers a gentle pause, a place where the passage of time feels less hurried, marked more by the seasons than by the clock.
