New Whittington sits on a steady slope about three miles north of Chesterfield, overlooking the Rother Valley. Historically a village built around the coal and iron industries, it traces its roots back much further, with its character defined by a mix of traditional stone cottages and the red-brick terraces typical of North Derbyshire’s industrial past. Life here centers around the main thoroughfare, London Street, and the green space of Brearley Park, which offers clear views out towards the crooked spire in the distance. Its location is practical for those working in the region; the A61 is close by for access to Sheffield, while the Dronfield bypass makes the commute north straightforward. To the east, the village borders the Chesterfield Canal, where the towpaths provide a direct, level route for walking or cycling toward Hollingwood and Staveley. It’s a settled spot that retains a distinct sense of being its own village despite the proximity of the town.
