Ghostrider Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Barrow Hill, now that's a name i've not heard in a long time. Used to deliver stuff to the roundhouse there, fascinating place, but would concede the surrounding area left a little to be desired.Tell me about it, not heard it for years till today, and I was bought up in Brimington !

Happ Hazzard Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Newbold is an ok area, that's where I live now. Brampton has really improved itself in recent years. Tapton is ok, Boythorpe is rough, Birdholme is very rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe-b-1 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Staveley. But only if there's no room left in barrow hill. You are seriously taking the P (hence the smiley I suppose). I lived there for a few years, the vicar (unless theres been a new one over the last couple of years) has moved from Toxteth and he told me that he considered Barrow Hill to be rougher. The post office was held up at gun-point about 4 years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffy Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Ashover is very expensive .. And nearer Matlock than Chesterfield. In fact if I lived in Ashover and someone said it was Chesterfield I'd definitely put them right!!! Anywhere not near chesterfield is good.

Obelix Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Holymoorside is great. Either there or Walton would be my choice for a place to live in Chesterfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
