About Fencing in Worksop
Worksop sits at the edge of the Dukeries, an area of Nottinghamshire named for the string of grand ducal estates once found here, close to the remaining fragments of Sherwood Forest linked to the Robin Hood legend. The town grew through coal mining and, before that, agricultural trade, and its priory church remains one of the area's most significant historic buildings.

Types of Materials found in Worksop
Worksop sits close to where the Sherwood Sandstone gives way to Permian Magnesian Limestone further east, with Coal Measures bedrock lying beneath both at depth, extensively mined across the wider district. Crystallised magnesian limestone has historically been quarried along the cutting of the Worksop railway line, a well documented local geological feature. Ground conditions vary across the town depending on which of these formations sits closest to the surface, with the sandstone areas generally firmer and better draining.
