About Scarcliffe

Scarcliffe whispers its name across the Derbyshire landscape, a quiet presence in the Bolsover district. It lies 2.5 km south-east of Bolsover (from Bolsover: bearing 132°T, OS grid SK 492 686), and is situated east of Palterton village. The earth here, a deep, rich loam, holds the memory of ancient fields, where the sky often unfurls in vast, pale expanses, tinged with the soft hues of dawn or the lingering gold of sunset. The houses of Scarcliffe, many of them built from the local warm-toned stone, seem to gather around the gentle slope, their roofs a patchwork against the green fields that embrace them. A particular quietude pervades the air, broken only by the wind rustling through the leaves of mature trees or the distant bleating of sheep.
