The Battle of Mapperley Hills was an incident on Tuesday 23 August 1842, which marked the culmination of several days of Chartist disturbances in the Nottingham area. Troops and police broke up an assembly of about five thousand people and arrested four hundred when they refused to disperse. The site of the assembly and "the battle" may have been in Mapperley Hills Common, close to where Ransom Road meets Woodborough Road. The Common, of 54 acres, and the adjoining Coppice of the Hunger Hills were open to the inhabitants of Nottingham, but owned by Nottingham Corporation as lord of the manor.
