It lies in the Rushcliffe borough of Nottinghamshire.[1] The population was recorded as 1,742 in the 2011 census.[2] ToponomyAppearing as Aslachetone in the Domesday survey of 1086;[3] the place name seems to contain an Old Norse personal name Aslakr + tūn (Old English) meaning an enclosure, a farmstead, a village, an estate, etc., so "Farm or settlement of a man called Aslakr".[4] There are 19 such place names (a Scandinavian personal name followed by tūn ) in Nottinghamshire, all of them in the Domesday survey, and all apparently ancient villages.[5] HeritageAll that remains of the 12th-century Aslockton Castle are some the earthworks: the motte, called Cranmer's Mound, stands about 16 feet (5 m) high.[6] Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury 1533–1553, was born in Aslockton and lived until the age of 14 in his parents' cottage, which still stands in Abbey Lane. The Archbishop Cranmer Church of England Primary School (an academy since 2014, having opened in 1968), the Cranmer Pre-School, and the local social facility, the Thomas Cranmer Centre, are named in his honour. (For secondary education, Toot Hill School in Bingham has a sixth form and academy status.)[7] Aslockton originally had its own Holy Trinity Chapel, a peculiar under the collegiate church of Southwell Minster rather than the diocesan bishop,[8] but this became ruined and was incorporated into a private house. Some remains of it can still be seen.[9] Cranmer and his father worshiped at the Church of St John of Beverley, Whatton.[10] He has also given his name to a local prospect mound.[11]The population of Aslockton was 171 in 1801, 273 in 1821, and 289 in 1831.[12] The village had a population of 363 in 1936.[13] The land for Aslockton Cemetery was purchased in 1869, at which time the only place of worship in the village was a Methodist chapel, which has since been converted into flats.[14] The present Grade II listed St Thomas's Church was designed by the architect Sir Reginald Blomfield and erected in 1890–92[15] in memory of a former vicar of Whatton, Thomas K. Hall, who drowned in February 1890 as RMS Quetta was wrecked off Queensland on her way to Thursday Island. His mother, Mrs Sophia E. Hall, paid for the church. The Quetta window on the north wall depicting the shipwreck was designed by Michael Stokes in 2002, as was the east window, dedicated to Cranmer, which has Jesus showing his hands to Doubting Thomas.[16] The church has a single bell in a bell cote at the west end.[17] The parish forms part of the Cranmer group, with Hawksworth, Scarrington, Thoroton, Whatton and Orston. The incumbent is Rev. Bryony Wood. The vicarage is in Aslockton.[18] AmenitiesDespite the village's small size, it had two pubs until recently: the Old Greyhound and the Cranmer Arms. The Old Greyhound closed in May 2007, and the new owners have submitted a planning application [https://web.archive.org/web/20100731075052/http://www.oldgreyhoundaslockton.com/newsItem.php?id=122] to turn the building into a restaurant. The village also has a small shop, which includes a post office and a dry-cleaning service. Aslockton Hall contains a nursing and residential home for the elderly.[19] The Aslockton windmill and bakehouse were situated on Mill Lane ({{gbmapping|SK739408}}).[20] The mill was a wooden postmill, weatherboarded, on a brick roundhouse, with four single patent sails. The miller and baker in 1864 was Job Heathcote.[21] The village railway station has regular services to Nottingham, Spalding and Skegness. A bus service operates to Bingham and Bottesford for onward bus connections. The local community quarterly newsletter, delivered free to every house, is called The Voice.[22] SportsWhatton and Aslockton have a joint cricket club said to date back before 1815.[23] It has two senior teams playing in the South Nottinghamshire Cricket League and a colts team playing in the Newark Under 15s Premiership League.[24] Aslockton Cranmer Football Club fields a variety of teams for adults and youngsters.[25] There is also a tennis club,[26] and table tennis teams at the Thomas Cranmer Centre.[27] Famous residentsIn birth order
