The population recorded in the 2011 census was 1,247.[1] Its short distance from Nottingham (6.9 miles, 11.1 km) has helped to raise the price of real estate.[2]

Governance and environment

In local government, Lambley comes under Lambley Parish Council[3] and Gedling Borough Council.

The Lambley Dumbles are secluded places noted for their geology and ancient woodland rich in flowers and ferns. They are accessible along three marked village trails.[4]

Heritage

Toponomy

Lambley contains the Old English word, lamb, + lēah (Old English), a forest, wood, glade, clearing; (later) a pasture, meadow, and so "Lamb's meadow".[5][6][7]

History

Flint tools found in fields near the village point to Neolithic and Bronze Age occupation.[8] Lambley is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 by the name of Lambeleia. John de Crumbewell, parson of Lambley, was given a pardon for outlawry in 1360.[9]

The church, Holy Trinity Church, Lambley, is a Grade I listed building.[10] It has been described as "one of the few entirely Perp. village churches in Notts, all of a piece and of felicitous proportions tall and narrow, all the windows high and spacious." The only earlier section is part of the west tower (12th–13th century). The rebuilding was financed by Ralph, Lord Cromwell (see under Famous people).[11]

Nine men born in Lambley are reported to have died in action in the First World War.[12]

Notable people

In order of birth:

  • Ralph de Cromwell, 3rd Baron Cromwell (c. 1393–1456), Lord Treasurer of England to Henry VI, and responsible for submitting the first budget to Parliament, was born in the village and financed the building of much of the church.[11]
  • Eric Martin (1925–2015), first-class cricketer for Nottinghamshire, was born in the village.
  • David Glenn (living), plantsman and gardener, has named his Australian garden "Lambley", after his childhood home.
  • Mark Spencer (born 1970), elected a Conservative MP for Sherwood in 2010, attended Lambley Primary School.

Transport

The nearest railway station is at Lowdham (3.4 miles, 5.5 km) on the Newark–Nottingham line.

There are occasional bus services towards Nottingham, Arnold, Netherfield and nearby villages.[13]

The A6097 and A612 trunk roads pass through Lowdham (2.7 miles, 4.3 km).

Education

At the end of Year Six, most pupils at Lambley Primary School[14] transfer to the Colonel Frank Seely School in Calverton for their secondary education. The most recent Ofsted report for Lambley Primary School, in January 2014, rated it Good for pupil achievement, teaching quality, pupil behaviour and safety, and leadership and management. It had 109 pupils aged 4–11 at that time.[15]

The school has its own website.[16]

Amenities

The businesses in Lambley include a general store and others dealing with the motor trade, skiing equipment, bars and catering, accountancy, architecture, horticultural nursery, boarding kennels, and caravan storage.

The village has two pubs: the Woodlark Inn and the Robin Hood Inn.

A crematorium, the fourth in Nottinghamshire, opened in 2017.[17]
