Gedling

 

Location: East Midlands

Population: 115,889 (Mid-year estimate 2015)

Interesting fact: During the early part of the 20th century, railway made its way to Gedling. This was mainly due to the new colliery being built on the outskirts of Gedling and Arnold. The mine started production in 1903 and closed in 1991. In 2013 work began to transform it into a 250 acre country park which will be open in March 2015.
