Tupton is a village and ward in North East Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, lying between Chesterfield and Clay Cross. It occupies a semi-rural setting where pockets of farmland and green corridors sit alongside residential streets and former industrial land, giving good access to local walking routes and straightforward commuting links into nearby towns and the wider motorway network.
Historically the community grew up with the coal and iron industries that shaped much of Derbyshire, and that industrial past still colours the built environment and local identity. Today Tupton is largely residential with a mix of local shops, pubs and community groups, centred around long-standing landmarks such as Tupton Hall School, and balances village-style social life with close economic and cultural ties to neighbouring towns.
