Rempstone

The first church in Rempstone, St Peter in the Rushes,[3] stood approximately half a mile (1 km) north-east of the present village near the Sheepwash Brook next to a moated Manor House now a fishing lake, a Holy spring is also at this location.

About 20 headstones mark the site of the original churchyard and during the last 200 years of this church there were approximately 950 burials including that of six former Rectors of Rempstone.

'Kinchbus 9'[6] (in yellow and blue livery) passes through Rempstone along the A60 between Nottingham and Loughborough daily, including into the late evenings from Monday to Saturday.

Started in 1956 the Steam and Traction Engine rally has outgrown the village and nowadays takes place in nearby Wymeswold on the second full weekend in July.

It has always donated its profits to local and national charities including Rainbows Children's Hospice, Steps Conductive Education Centre, The Air Ambulance Service, Macmillan Cancer Support, Demelza Hospice Care, and Wymeswold Village Community Centre Project).
