Hodsock

Hodsock is a village and civil parish about 4 miles from Worksop, in the Bassetlaw district, in the county of Nottinghamshire, England.

[1][4] The parish is surrounded by the settlements of Babworth, Barnby Moor, Blyth, Carlton in Lindrick, Costhorpe, Firbeck, Letwell, Maltby, Styrrup with Oldcotes and Torworth.

The parish consists of two settlements: A deserted village, Hermeston possibly existed locally, but the exact location remains unknown.

Three classified routes pass through the area: Predominantly, the parish is a scattering of farms, farmhouses and cottages amongst a wider rural setting.

Hodsock Priory and estate with its farms, and much of Carlton-in-Lindrick were bought by the Mellish family in 1765, parts of which they sold on to Ralph Knight of Langold.

Though its location is not known nor is it known if it was one,[11] it was referred to in historical texts,[12] and was likely to be close to (and possibly north of) present day Hermeston Hall.
