Trent Vale

The Trent Vale Landscape Partnership is a three-year scheme to conserve, enhance and celebrate the cultural identity of the Trent Vale between Newark and Gainsborough. The focus is on the communities, habitats and heritage that make the area so distinctive. It is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund with match funding and in-kind support coming from our partners, volunteers and community groups.
