Gosforth Valley is an electoral ward in North East Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, characterised by a mix of residential streets and surrounding countryside. It sits within easy reach of larger towns, forming part of a commuter belt for places such as Chesterfield and Sheffield, and benefits from nearby green spaces and a quieter, village-like atmosphere.
