Welcome to Clowne

Clowne is a small town located in the county of Derbyshire, England. It is situated approximately 7 miles east of Chesterfield and 9 miles south of Sheffield. The town has a population of around 7,000 people and is known for its rich history and beautiful countryside. The town is surrounded by rolling hills and picturesque landscapes, making it a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Clowne has a long and fascinating history, dating back to the Roman era. The town was once a thriving mining community, with coal mining being the main industry in the area. However, the decline of the mining industry in the 1980s led to a significant economic downturn in the town. Today, Clowne is a quiet and peaceful town, with a strong sense of community and a range of local amenities, including shops, pubs, and restaurants.

Despite its small size, Clowne has a lot to offer visitors. The town is home to a number of historic buildings, including the Grade II listed St John the Baptist Church, which dates back to the 12th century. There are also several parks and nature reserves in the area, including the popular Creswell Crags, which is home to a range of wildlife and ancient rock art. Whether you're interested in history, nature, or simply want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, Clowne is the perfect destination.
