About

The north side of Matlock sits above the River Derwent and includes the town’s railway terminus. Matlock station marks the northern edge and is the end point of the Derwent Valley Line from Derby. The area mixes terraced streets and later suburban housing with local shops, a post office and community facilities. Roads climb from the river valley toward Riber and Matlock Moor, giving the neighbourhood a stepped layout where lanes meet small greens and school grounds.

Footpaths from the north side link into a network of lanes and public rights of way that rise above the town. Old mill buildings and riverside works remain along the Derwent, repurposed for local firms and services. On the slopes above, Riber Castle stands on Riber Hill and is visible from parts of the north area, a local landmark that marks the transition from town to open moorland. Regular bus and rail connections keep the north side linked to the wider Derbyshire Dales.
