Newark-on-Trent or Newark /ˈnjuːək/ is a market town and civil parish in the Newark and Sherwood district of the county of Nottinghamshire, in the East Midlands of England. It stands on the River Trent, the A1 (on the route of the ancient Great North Road), and the East Coast Main Line railway. The origins of the town are possibly Roman, as it lies on an important Roman road, the Fosse Way. The town grew around Newark Castle, now ruined, and a large market place, now lined with historic buildings. It was a centre for the wool and cloth trades. In the English Civil War, it was besieged by Parliamentary forces and had to be relieved by Prince Rupert in a battle known as the Relief of Newark.

Meander and Mooch offers an eclectic mix of silver jewellery, hand made ceramics, bronze, glass and original art. We are not a conventional art gallery, no uninspiring white walls for us, just plenty of theatre, character and a welcoming atmosphere.

The tea room is great for a breakfast buttie and a coffee and during these difficult times they are offering takeaway in a very clean and safe way. Next time I will definitely be trying one of the home made scones.

Too many people don't know about Newark Antiques Centre which is a real shame. It's tucked away up a drive way across from the big ASDA. There is something for everybody. From collectables to fine antique furniture, books to costume jewellery, Newark Antiques Centre has it all! Our tea room is delightful selling delicious home made cakes and freshly prepared hot food and regular daily specials. Our attractive website is user friendly and very useful as you can buy items directly or reserve them. We are also open 7 days a week and regard ourselves as a must visit for anybody in the Newark area. So what are you waiting for!
