About Oakerthorpe

Oakerthorpe rests within the Amber Valley's embrace, a quiet corner of Derbyshire. It lies 2.2 km west of Alfreton (from Alfreton: bearing 269°T, OS grid SK 389 557), and is situated east of South Wingfield village. The landscape here unfurls with a gentle, rolling character, where fields of cultivated green often catch the diffused light of an English sky. Oakerthorpe's origins are rooted in the agricultural rhythms of this land, a place where the echoes of past farming life can still be felt in the very air. Evidence of its industrial past, though now softened by time, can be glimpsed in the enduring stone of older dwellings. The village itself possesses a certain understated charm, a testament to generations who have called this place home.
