Barrow on Trent Cottages
One of the earliest mentions of this place is in the Domesday book where it is listed amongst the lands given to Henry de Ferrers[3] by the King. The land included 8 acres (32,000 m2) of ground space and there were four oxen. Some of the land was described as "waste" but the value was put at two shillings.
The parish council owns an attractive row of ten Grade II listed cottages, known as "The Row". These are rented to people with village connections.[1] It also owns "The Pinfold", a small walled area originally used for holding stray cattle. The village is home to a Tarmac quarry.
