About

Unstone ward covers a largely rural area in North East Derbyshire, characterised by agricultural land and scattered settlements. The landscape includes the Drone Valley and parts of the Moss Valley, with fields and woodland defining the scenery. The ward encompasses the villages of Unstone and Unstone Green, along with smaller hamlets like Goose Green. The main A61 road runs through the area, connecting it to Chesterfield and Sheffield.

The settlement pattern is one of small, historic communities rather than a single centre. Local governance falls under North East Derbyshire District Council. A notable feature is the Unstone Derbyshire County Council Air Quality Management Area, designated along the main road. Economic activity has traditionally included farming, with some light industry and commuting to larger towns. The area contains several listed buildings and a conservation area.
