Killamarsh is a civil parish and town in North East Derbyshire, Derbyshire, in England, on the edge of the Sheffield urban area beside the River Rother and close to Rother Valley Country Park. Its landscape blends wooded river valleys, reclaimed quarries and former industrial land with suburban neighbourhoods and greenbelt countryside.
Historically built around coal and ironstone working, Killamarsh still shows that industrial heritage in brick terraces, disused rail embankments and local place‑names, but now functions largely as a residential and commuter community for Sheffield and Chesterfield. Community life is anchored by schools, sports clubs and local events, and there has been steady regeneration of brownfield sites alongside efforts to protect riverside habitats and walking routes.
