About

Stonebroom, Shirland and Wessington form a cluster of villages in North East Derbyshire, on the eastern edge of the old Derbyshire coalfield and close to Alfreton. Settlement is a mix of linear village streets and pockets of housing set among farmland. Local primary schools, village halls and small parades of shops give the area a local focus, while bus links and minor roads connect to neighbouring towns. Public footpaths and lanes run through the fields and between settlements, used by walkers and by people moving between home and work.

The area’s pattern of land use still shows its industrial past: former pit sites and spoil heaps were levelled in places and now form stretches of grassland and green corridors that link villages to open countryside. Community facilities include sports pitches, allotments and parish-managed greens. Farming remains active on the surrounding fields, and seasonal changes in crops and hedgerows shape views across the parish. Local councils handle planning and community services for residents in this part of North East Derbyshire.
