Swingate Nottinghamshire Map

About Swingate

Swingate, a quiet presence in Nottinghamshire, lies 0.8 km south-south-east of Kimberley (from Kimberley: bearing 165°T, OS grid SK 501 439). The gentle slope of the land here, where arable fields meet the edge of the Broxtowe district, suggests a history rooted in the cultivation of the earth, the light often catching the distant hedgerows with a soft, diffused glow. While not a place of grand pronouncements, Swingate carries the understated dignity of a community that has long understood the quiet rhythms of rural life, its houses clustered with a sense of settled permanence. The air here can carry the faint, earthy scent of turned soil, a reminder of the agricultural heritage that underpins much of this landscape. It is a place where the passing of seasons is observed not in dramatic events, but in the subtle shifting of colour across the fields and the changing quality of the sky.
