Radcliffe-on-Trent
Radcliffe-on-Trent is a large village and civil parish in the Rushcliffe borough of Nottinghamshire.
==Location==
Radcliffe has a population of around 8,000.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Parish Councils: names and addresses )〕 It is to the east of Nottingham, and is close to but not part of the Greater Nottingham built-up area. However, the Greater Nottingham Partnership considers the whole of Rushcliffe to be part of the Greater Nottingham conurbation. The village is situated on the south bank and cliff overlooking the River Trent, from which the village derives part of its name. The "Rad" part is a corruption of the Old English for red, in reference to the dark red colour of the cliffs, which are formed of Triassic red shale, with gypsum banding. Nearby places are Shelford, East Bridgford, Holme Pierrepont and Stoke Bardolph. To the South East of the Parish lies the former Saxondale Hospital which has recently been redeveloped into approximately 350 dwellings and renamed as Upper Saxondale.
The village is mainly on the northern side of the major, east-west, A52 trunk road. It is because of this road that Radcliffe is best known: at its western end it forms the eponymous ''Radcliffe Road'' which runs along the north-eastern edge of Trent Bridge cricket ground. Radcliffe is unusual among Rushcliffe villages in having its own railway station, connecting the village to Nottingham in the west and Grantham to the east. The village is also served by the Trent Barton bus company, which runs services to Nottingham once every 15 minutes on weekdays.
