Hucknall, in the Ashfield district of Nottinghamshire, had a population of around 35,000 at the 2021 census — a town with connections stretching from Romantic poetry to the Nottinghamshire coalfield.
Byron's burial place, and a mining town
Hucknall's best-known connection is to the poet Lord Byron, whose family seat at Newstead Abbey lies just outside the town: Byron is buried in the Byron family vault at St Mary Magdalene Church, and the church remains a point of pilgrimage for admirers of his work. Alongside that literary history, Hucknall grew through the 19th and 20th centuries as a Nottinghamshire coal-mining town, with collieries providing the town's main employment until the industry declined in the later 20th century.
What that history doesn't leave behind
A former mining town has corner shops and convenience stores, but it isn't set up as a dedicated sweet retailer with bulk bags, vegan and halal-friendly ranges, or trade cases for local businesses.
