Chapel East

About

Chapel East ward lies within the High Peak borough, encompassing the village of Chapel-en-le-Frith and its immediate eastern surroundings. The area is characterised by its position on the lower slopes of the Peak District, where residential streets transition into open farmland and moorland. The local economy includes a mix of small-scale industry and services catering to the resident population. The ward's landscape is defined by the contrast between its built-up core and the nearby rural expanses.

A central feature is the market square, historically the site of a charter granted in the 13th century, which continues to anchor the community. The parish church of St Thomas Becket, constructed from the local millstone grit, overlooks this area. Transport routes, including the railway line to Manchester, follow the natural valleys cutting through the terrain. The ward's geography directly influences settlement patterns, with development largely contained within the valley floor.
