Babbington is a tiny community between Kimberley and Awsworth, approached along a bridle way from Awsworth. These houses were built for colliers, but it's now a long time since coal was mined in the pretty rolling country on the eastern side of the Erewash Valley, between Ilkeston and the western edge of Nottingham.
