Map of the UK

Chisworth is a small, mostly rural civil parish in the High Peak district of Derbyshire, England. It sits amid the undulating farmland and gritstone moorland that characterise the fringes of the Peak District, with a dispersed pattern of stone-built cottages, farms and narrow lanes rather than a single large village centre.

The parish has a quietly historic and agricultural character, with hill farming and traditional stone architecture surviving alongside modern commuters who travel to nearby towns. Local life is shaped by country pursuits, public footpaths and a close-knit community feel; nearby nineteenth-century textile towns influenced the area’s economy historically, but today Chisworth is valued mainly for its landscape, heritage and rural tranquillity.
