Welcome to Charlesworth

Charlesworth is a small village located in the High Peak district of Derbyshire, England. The village is situated on the edge of the Peak District National Park and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Charlesworth has a rich history dating back to the 13th century when it was known as Charnesworth. The village was once a centre for the cotton industry and had several mills, but today it is a quiet residential area with a population of around 2,000 people.

One of the most notable landmarks in Charlesworth is the Church of St John the Baptist. The church dates back to the 14th century and is a Grade II listed building. It has a beautiful interior with stained glass windows and a wooden roof. The church is still in use today and holds regular services. Another interesting feature of Charlesworth is the Charlesworth and Chisworth railway station. The station was opened in 1863 and is still in use today, providing a link to Manchester and Sheffield.

Charlesworth is a great place to visit for those who enjoy outdoor activities. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and there are many walking and cycling routes to explore. The Peak District National Park is just a short distance away and offers stunning scenery and a range of outdoor activities such as hiking, rock climbing and mountain biking. Charlesworth is also home to several parks and green spaces, including the Charlesworth Playing Fields and the Charlesworth Millennium Green, which are great places to relax and enjoy the outdoors.
