Mansfield shown within Nottinghamshire

Mansfield is a large town and district of Nottinghamshire, with a population according to the 2001 UK census of 98,181. It lies on the River Maun, from which the name of the town (Maun's field) is derrived.

Unlike most English districts, its council is led by a directly-elected mayor, currently Tony Egginton, an independent.

The town was, until the 1990s, the largest in the UK without a railway station. One has since been built, on a railway line which runs on a large viaduct over the town centre. The town also has a museum and a theatre, and is home to the English Football League club Mansfield Town F.C

Settlements in the district of Mansfield include Mansfield Woodhouse, Meden Vale, Pleasleyhill and Warsop.
