Heritage

A Medieval Village on the Trent

Burton Joyce takes its name from the Jorz family, Norman lords who held the manor after the Conquest. The village sits on the banks of the River Trent, which has shaped its character and economy for centuries.

The arrival of the railway in 1846 connected Burton Joyce to Nottingham, making it accessible while preserving its village character.

Today, Burton Joyce remains a peaceful village with strong community spirit, local shops, and excellent access to the countryside.
