== Geography == Clipstone is the name of two related villages and associated civil parish areas – Clipstone, approximately four miles from Mansfield town, and Kings Clipstone slightly further away, formerly known as Clipstone and later Old Clipstone until 2003 when the ancient name of Kings Clipstone was resurrected and it was split off administratively. Both settlements lie alongside the B6030 road, with a small section known locally as the Rat Hole.
