About

Hayfield ward lies within the High Peak borough, centred around the village of Hayfield at the confluence of the River Sett and River Kinder. The area is defined by its position on the western edge of the Peak District National Park, with the high moorland of Kinder Scout forming its immediate eastern boundary. This landscape shapes the ward, which includes the settlements of Little Hayfield and part of Birch Vale.

The local economy has historical roots in textiles and paper milling, with several converted mill buildings still present. The area is a established starting point for walks onto the Kinder Plateau, with the Sett Valley Trail following a former railway line. Community life includes an annual agricultural show and activities centred on the village's cricket club and independent shops along the main streets.
