Contents

It consists of the Bracebridge and Kilton areas of Worksop, and the hamlet of Scofton.

The ward was created in 1979 following a review of ward boundaries in Bassetlaw by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England. A subsequent review of electoral arrangements in 2002 resulted in minor changes to the boundaries of the ward, although the number of councillors remained the same. [2]
