About

Ripley East, Riddings & Ironville lie in the Amber Valley district of Derbyshire, around the market town of Ripley and the adjacent villages. Ripley sits on the River Amber and functions as a local centre for shops, civic services and schools, with a market square and town hall forming the focus of community activity. Industrial history is visible in converted workshops, brick terraces and public memorials that mark the town’s growth in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Riddings grew as a coal and ironworking village, and its street pattern still reflects rows of miners’ housing and former pit sites. Ironville was laid out by the Butterley Company as a model village for workers, with planned terraces and public buildings that survive as part of the area’s built heritage. Today the three places form a mix of residential neighbourhoods, small employers and green corridors following the Amber and former industrial routes, with local groups active in preserving their industrial archaeology and community facilities.
