Yet there’s more to this Derbyshire market town at the edge of the Peak District National Park than its twisted spire. With an interesting history, Chesterfield is known for being the site of some important historical events like the plot to overthrow King James II/VII, and the town’s large role in the Industrial Revolution. Also, the Victorian-era ‘father of railways’, George Stephenson lived in Chesterfield. Handily, the town is also home to a weekly market, as well as a wide choice of shops, banks, supermarkets and evening entertainment. Chesterfield is within good driving distance to Matlock and Belper for shopping alternatives and days out. In Matlock Bath, you’ll find the glorious Heights of Abraham and in Belper, interesting historical evidence of its own status as one of the most active centres of the fledgling Industrial Revolution.
