Huthwaite (formerly known as Hucknall-under-Huthwaite) is an ecclesiastical parish on the Derbyshire border. 5 miles west from Mansfield, in the Mansfield division of the county, northern division of the wapentake of Broxtow, petty sessional division, county court district and rural deanery of Mansfield, archdeaconry of Newark and diocese of Southwell. The local Government Act, 1858, was adopted by the parish July 9, 1873, and a Local Board formed, but under the Local Government Act, 1894, the parish was governed by an Urban District Council. By the County of Nottingham Review Order, 1934, the urban district was abolished and Huthwaite transferred to the parish and urban district of Sutton-in-Ashfield, of which it forms a ward. The church of All Saints, erected in 1903, is an edifice built of rock brought up from the local colliery, with Mansfield stone dressings, in the Early English style, consisting of chancel, nave and north aisle, with the base only of a tower, and one bell; three stained windows at the east end of the church were given by Simeon Watson esq. J.P. and Mary Ann, his wife, in memory of their son, John Henry Watson; there are two others given by Frances Dodsley, and one in the wall of the south aisle, dedicated in 1921, to the men of the parish who fell in the Great War, 1914-18; there are 500 sittings. The living is a vicarage, net yearly value £400, in the gift of the vicar of Sutton-in-Ashfield, and held since 1925 by the Rev. Walter Llewellyn Boulton M.A. of Worcester college, Oxford. The vicarage was extended in 1929 by the purchase of one acre of glebe. There are three Methodist churches. A cemetery of two acres, containing a mortuary chapel, was opened in 1889; it was enlarged by the addition of 1 acres in 1912, and 3 acres in 1915. The New Hucknall Colliery Club and Institute was erected in 1893 by the company, and enlarged in 1912. The Huthwaite branch of the Sutton-in-Ashfield public library was erected in 1912, and has about 1,150 volumes. There is a recreation ground in Sutton Road, and a miners welfare sports ground, pavilion and recreation ground in Columbia Street, Sutton Road. The principle industries are coal mining and the manufacture of cotton and woollen hose. The Duke of Portland K.G., P.C., G.C.V.O., T.D. who is lord of the manor, and the trustees of Robert Marsh Eckersley Wilkinson Dodsley esq. are the principle landowners. Gas and electricity are available, main water is supplied. The soil is clay; subsoil magnesium limestone. The chief crops are wheat, oats and barley, and there is good pasture land. The population in 1931 was 5,836. By an Order in Council, gazetted 5th May, 1911, part of Sutton-in-Ashfield ecclesiastical parish, containing at the 1911 census a population of 740, was transferred to Huthwaite ecclesiastical parish.
