A picturesque riverside village named after its red cliffs, offering excellent schools, outdoor activities, and a thriving community.
Heritage
Radcliffe on Trent takes its name from the distinctive red cliffs along the River Trent that have defined the landscape for centuries. First mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, the village has a rich history stretching back over a millennium.
The village grew around its medieval church and developed as an agricultural community. The arrival of the Grantham Canal in 1797 and later the railway brought new prosperity.
Today, Radcliffe is known for its outdoor recreational opportunities, particularly the Grantham Canal walks and riverside activities.
