About the village

A quietly proud corner of Chesterfield

Hasland sits about a mile and a half south-east of Chesterfield town centre, between the River Rother and the rolling fields that lead out towards Grassmoor and Temple Normanton. Once a separate village built up around mining and the Midland Railway, today it's a settled, family-friendly suburb with a real high-street feel along Mansfield Road.

Locals love it for the green space — Hasland Park is one of the best in the borough — the choice of pubs and cafés, and the easy run into town or out to the Peak District.

  • Green & open

    Hasland Park, Eastwood Park and the Peak District on the doorstep.

  • Well connected

    Direct buses to Chesterfield, easy access to the A61 and M1 J29.

  • Good schools

    Nursery, infant, junior and a Good-rated secondary academy, all in walking distance.

  • Real high street

    Independent shops, takeaways and traditional pubs along Mansfield Road.
