The history behind Cutthorpe
Cutthorpe stretches for 3 miles and rises from 115 to 300 metres from Four Lane Ends to the top of Grange Hill.
Just 3 miles from Chesterfield, and a short walk (or drive!) away from neighbouring villages Barlow and Old Brampton, Cutthorpe is a part of Brampton Parish Council and is home to many houses, halls and buildings both new and old.
Our two historic halls are The Old Manor House; once the property of the Sitwell family, built in 1625 by Robert Clarke, the first Mayor of Chesterfield, and Cutthorpe Hall; built in 1675 and the former residence of the famed Heathcote family!
House Names and Numbers for Main Road, Cutthorpe
Many of the houses in Cutthorpe have a name but no number – confusing for visitors and delivery people alike!
A local villager, Pete Stott, has thankfully stepped up to the mark and put together a map with the house names on – so if you have a query you can check here.
Copies of this map are also placed in the Book Swap Phone Box.
Our village newsletter
A newsletter is produced every 3 months and distributed to all village residents, and members of the Cutthorpe Charity who live elsewhere, to keep them informed about what’s happening in the village.
