About

Gamesley ward lies on the western edge of the High Peak, bordered by open moorland and the steep Goyt Valley. The area is primarily residential, with housing estates developed from the mid-20th century. It is situated close to the town of Glossop, with local amenities centred around a small shopping precinct. The landscape is marked by its proximity to the Peak District National Park, with elevated views towards the surrounding hills.

The ward contains Gamesley Primary School and a community centre serving as local hubs. A notable feature is the presence of the former railway line, now part of the Longdendale Trail, which runs along the northern boundary. This path follows the route of the Woodhead railway tunnels, providing a direct recreational link into the wider moorland scenery. Housing is a mix of terraced and semi-detached homes, with some areas of newer development.
