About

At over 1,000 feet, Chelmorton in the White Peak area of Derbyshire occupies one of the highest village locations in England.  The Village is famous for it’s preserved field system whereby villagers were allocated ‘strips’ within open fields.  These are still in evidence, although today enclosed by iconic Derbyshire drystone walls.

Things to do...

Chelmorton boasts the active church of St. John the Baptist, founded in the 11thCentury and the adjacent Church Inn dates back to the 1700s.  Chrome and Parkhouse hills are a short drive away, as are Miller’s Dale and Chee Dale. For walkers, The Midshires Way passes through the village.
