Chesterfield lies on the edge of the Peak District and though it was once a mining district and is now a centre for light engineering. Settled in Roman and Saxon times, it was recorded in the Domesday Book and medieval street names such as Knifesmithgate survive today, indicating the town’s long history.

Chesterfield is probably best known for the twisted spire on the parish church, the spire and tower date from the 14th century but the church does boast Norman, Jacobean and Victorian elements too. The town’s museum of local history is in the Revolution House, which was once the Cock & Pynot Inn, where the fourth Duke of Devonshire and his cohorts plotted the downfall of King James II.

Nearby is Bolsover Castle, which was first established in the 12th century by the mighty Peverel family. It is now semi-ruinous Bolsover has a fairy tale air to it. Owned by British Heritage it is open to the public throughout the year.
