'''{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}''' is a historic market town and local government district in [[East Midlands (England)|Derbyshire]], a county in [[England]]. The town is known for its Crooked Spire and traditional market.
The town lies 30 miles north of [[Derby]], and 12 miles south of [[Sheffield]]. The town is linked to the [[M1 (GB)|M1]] motorway by junctions 30 (used primarily by northbound traffic via A619) and 29 (used primarily by southbound traffic via A617). The town is not fantastic for hitching out of (it's difficult to find a safe place for a car to stop on a major road within the town, and the road to the [[M1 (GB)|M1]] is not suitable for walking along - the nearest lay-by is 1.5 miles), and not worth getting in to, unless you are hitch-hiking from [[Sheffield]] to [[Derby]].
