Map of the UK

Sandiacre is an electoral ward in the borough of Erewash, in Derbyshire, England, lying in the commuter belt between Derby and Nottingham. The ward sits beside the Erewash Canal and close to the River Erewash, with easy road links to the M1 and A52, and a suburban mix of housing, small shops and light industry that reflects its edge-of-town character.

Historically the area grew up with the region’s hosiery, lace and mining trades, and a focal point remains the parish church of St Giles and active local sports clubs; today it combines that industrial heritage with green towpath walks, cycling routes and a community feeling typical of neighbouring settlements such as Long Eaton.
