Nearest Cities TO PROPERTIES FOR SALE IN WIRKSWORTH

Derby is the UK’s most central city –  In the town centre, there are a number of independent boutiques, the relatively new Westfield shopping centre and The Derby Quad which consists of a gallery, cinema and cafe.   The City has a number and diversity of restaurants and bars and has three museums, the Derby Museum and Art Gallery, The Silk Mill and Pickford’s House Museum.  The train station is a hub for connections to all major cities

Nottingham’s busy city centre, approximately 45 minutes by car, is surprisingly burgeoning.  Bigger than Sheffield City centre, with some stunning architecture, it boasts a range of independent and national chain stores but also features designer stores such as Flannels, Boss and Paul Smith.   John Lewis along with most of the major chains can be found here.  The Royal Theatre is in the city centre along with the capital FM Arena. The historical side of Nottingham has the Galleries of Justice Museum, New Art Exchange (contemporary and diverse art), Nottingham Castle, Wollaton Park and many other attractions.

 Sheffield – Dore Station, 53 minutes, free parking and a 7 minute ride to the town centre.  In population terms, Sheffield is the UK’s 3^rd city, but it has more trees per capita and more parks than any other city in Europe.  Town centre shopping includes John Lewis, the Graves Art Gallery and the usual range of chains.  If you enjoy shopping indoors, the out of town, industrial East End based Meadowhall, is huge and contains most chain stores and a plethora of eateries.  However, the Sheffield we love is the South West, surrounding large teaching hospitals and two major Universities.   It boasts the Ecclesall Road, a bohemian, independent and designer filled road full of eateries and bars along with a large Waitrose and M&S Simply Food just a stone’s throw away.  The South West suburbs are amongst the wealthiest in the UK with the delights of the Peak Park on the doorstep (a third of Sheffield lies within the Peak Park).
