Huthwaite is a village in the Ashfield district, in Nottinghamshire, England, located to the west of Mansfield, close to the Derbyshire boundary.

Strawberry Bank (OS grid ref SK4659) is the disputed highest point in Nottinghamshire.

[10] Herrod's Hill in Huthwaite (SK4660), Newtonwood Lane in Whiteborough (SK4560) and Derby Road in Annesley (SK5054) are also contenders for the "highest point in Nottinghamshire" record.

The population in 1800 was about 500 but soon started to grow with the opening of Hucknall Colliery, a drift mine at the bottom of Blackwell Road.

The closure of the majority of mines in the area, which included New Hucknall Colliery in the early 1980s, and the off shoring of hosiery jobs led to large amounts of unemployment.

In 1940, the British Royal Navy took over this 4-storey block to be the headquarters of their medical supply department for most of World War II.

Quantum Clothing Group was created as a management buy-out from Coats Viyella in December 2000.

In April 2015, Ashfield District Council granted planning permission for the "demolition of the existing warehousing and factory complex".
