Around Clay Cross.

Clay Cross is a former coal and iron town in north-east Derbyshire, built largely around the company that sank its pits, and it remains a working community with strong local loyalties. It sits on the A61 between Chesterfield and Alfreton, and much of the housing is older terraced and former council stock alongside newer estates. Customers want honest pricing and firms that turn up. A website should name the surrounding villages such as Danesmoor, Tupton and North Wingfield.

Elsewhere in Derbyshire: Chesterfield (5 miles), Alfreton (5 miles), Matlock (6 miles) and Bolsover (7 miles). Just over the council boundary, Kirkby-in-Ashfield (9 miles) is close by. It is worth saying plainly which of these you travel to, so people further out know whether to call.

Inside Clay Cross, the site can name areas such as Danesmoor, Holmewood, Tupton, Stretton, North Wingfield and Pilsley.

Clay Cross addresses fall in the S postcode area, about 191 miles north-east of Exeter, where we are based.
