Carburton or Carberton is a small village on the west side of Clumber within the Bassetlaw district of Nottinghamshire, England. It is primarily rural and residential. The church of Saint Giles is an unusual shape and dates back to the early 12th century, parish records date back to the 1530s

Carburton stands on the River Poulter, on the Ollerton Road and is very close to Clumber Park. It is surrounded by four major cities, those being Doncaster, Lincoln, Sheffield and Nottingham, which is around 24 miles (39 km) away. Whilst London is 154 miles (248 km) away via the M1.

History

In 1848 it was written that Carburton was part of the Hatfield division of the Bassetlaw wapentake north division of the county of Nottingham situated about 4 miles (6.4 km) SSE from Worksop. The township contained 193 inhabitants and 1,516 acres of land. The Duke of Portland was the sole owner and lord of the manor, however the Duke of Newcastle owned about 40 acres, which was inclosed in Clumber Park.

In 1853 it was written that the chapelry included Carburton Forge, a small hamlet, one mile west of the village, where there was previously an iron forge.

The chapel that is located in Carburton is dedicated to Saint Giles and is believed to date back to the Saxon period. However church records show the Anglican parish register dates from 1537 for baptisms, and 1540 for marriages and burials.

St Giles Church – Carburton

Carburton Church

The chapel of Carburton that is dedicated to Saint Giles is a small edifice that is said to be stood on land liable to flood. There has been no mention of the church in the Domesday Book as the place always seems to have been quite small. It is a simple parallelogram that is 50 ft long and about 15 ft wide. It is made up of a chancel and a nave, as well as having a porch to the south-west and a small vestry to the north-east. It still has three of its original windows, two at the east end and one on the south side. The remaining windows, two on the south and one on the north and west sides, have possibly been replaced during the reign of Edward 1. It also comprises a double sun dial that is situated in the south western angle of the main wall above the porch. This often causes peculiar effects due to the building being not truly orientated.

It is said that up until the Reformation the church was probably owned by Welbeck Abbey and in the early 14th century there was a petition against the Abbot of Welbeck for enclosing land near the abbey belonging to Carburton. The whole building was then restored in the 1880s.
