Welcome to Dunkirk

Dunkirk is a small village located in the county of Nottinghamshire, England. It is situated approximately 5 miles west of Nottingham city centre and is surrounded by the villages of Lenton Abbey, Wollaton, and Bramcote. The village is known for its beautiful countryside, which is popular with walkers and cyclists. The village has a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back to the Bronze Age.

One of the most notable landmarks in Dunkirk is the Dunkirk Mill, which is a Grade II listed building. The mill was built in the 18th century and was used to grind corn until the early 20th century.
