About Nottingham
Nottingham is a sprawling rural gem in Rockingham County where open farmland, horse pastures, and dense forests far outnumber commercial buildings — over 96% of the town's assessed value is residential. Pawtuckaway State Park anchors the landscape with more than 5,000 acres of trails, a pristine lake, and the distinctive boulder fields left by retreating glaciers. The town's country roads wind past stone walls, hobby farms, and equestrian properties that give Nottingham a distinctly unhurried, agricultural character. Tuckaway Tavern & Butchery has become a regional destination, and local spots like Liar's Paradise General Store keep the community connected. With a new independent SAU 107 school district and a highly rated K-8 school, families are drawn to the combination of strong academics and wide-open spaces. Nottingham feels miles from anywhere, yet Durham, Dover, and the Seacoast are all within a half-hour drive.
