Brampton is an area in the west of Chesterfield, Derbyshire. Originally a village separate from the town, it became absorbed into it over time due to urban sprawl. It is centred on Chatsworth Road, the main arterial road (A619) that connects the town with the Peak District and Manchester. Cutthorpe, a small, sleepy village approximately four miles north-west of Chesterfield with a village school, a butcher's shop and a small post office/grocery store, three public houses and two historic halls, forms part of the pleasant former parish of Brampton; the main road straggles through the village for three miles, reaching the Grange at its highest point, with commanding views all around.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Derbyshire UK: Guide to Derbyshire & the Peak District: Cutthorpe )〕 Eastmoor is the last hamlet encountered, in the former parish, when going west on the A619 towards Bakewell. == Entertainment == The area was known for the 'Brampton Mile.' This was a stretch of pubs, approximately a mile long, where a night out would include one drink in each bar. There are now fewer pubs in the area and many of the buildings have been demolished to make way for new businesses and housing development. In recent years the area has become known for its plethora of independent shops along Chatsworth Road. A number of new retail developments, notably 131 Chatsworth Road and the Hanger, have sprung up alongside well-established, traditional family businesses. The area has been loosely compared to Ecclesall Road in Sheffield. A festival celebrating the local community and small businesses on and around Chatsworth Road is held in October. A monthly publication, called S40 Local, seeks to promote the vibrancy of the local area and its many amenities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brampton, Derbyshire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
