Map of the UK

Ault Hucknall is a small, largely rural parish in the district of Bolsover, in Derbyshire, England. The settlement is dispersed into hamlets and farms set across rolling countryside, giving long views over the surrounding valleys and a quiet, agricultural character rather than an urban centre.

Its principal point of interest is the estate landscape of Hardwick Hall and the nearby Hardwick Old Hall, the Elizabethan house built for Bess of Hardwick and now cared for as a National Trust attraction, which brings visitors and a tourism element to the local economy. Historically the area has been shaped by landed estates and by proximity to Derbyshire’s coalfield and quarrying activity, while today many residents combine farming with commuting to nearby centres such as Chesterfield and modest tourism-related businesses.
