It covers a handful of villages and hamlets set among rolling farmland on the eastern approaches to the Peak District, and sits within easy commuting distance of the market town of Chesterfield.
The area mixes agricultural traditions with an industrial past: traces of 19th–20th century coal‑mining survive alongside working farms, Victorian churches and village halls.
