Calver and Longstone lie in the steep, attractive valley of the River Derwent on the edge of the Peak District, within the district of Derbyshire Dales in Derbyshire, England. The disused railway now forming the Monsal Trail runs through the area, bringing walkers and cyclists past old mill buildings and limestone outcrops that give the landscape a distinctly rugged character.
Locally the economy blends farming and visitor-focused businesses - pubs, holiday lets and outdoor recreation - while historic and ongoing limestone working on Longstone Edge has shaped both the skyline and community debate about conservation. It’s a small, sociable place that nevertheless benefits from being close to market towns such as Bakewell and Matlock, making it popular with commuters and day visitors alike.
