Visit Newark

The Quintessential English market town

Newark, also known as Newark-on-Trent, is the quintessential English market town. Home to the National Civil War Centre, a stunning riverside Castle dating back to the early 12th Century, Air Museum and a thriving, cobbled Market Place overlooked by its Georgian Town Hall, Newark offers an experience of English history through the ages alongside a tempting array of antique shops, cafés, boutiques, eateries and historic pubs.
