Facts about Old Whittington
Old Whittington is a historic and unique residential district located on the northern outskirts of Chesterfield in Derbyshire, famously associated with the ‘Glorious Revolution’ of 1688. The area is home to the Revolution House, a small stone cottage that was once the Cock and Pynot Inn, where three local earls met to plot the overthrow of King James II in favour of William of Orange. Historically, Old Whittington was an independent village with its own agricultural and small-scale industrial roots before being absorbed by the expansion of Chesterfield. One of the most significant landmarks in the area is the Church of St Bartholomew, which stands as a testament to the village’s ancient history. The geography of Old Whittington is defined by its position on a slight rise, providing residents with beautiful views over the surrounding countryside and the nearby Rother Valley. The local architecture is a charming mix of traditional gritstone cottages, Victorian red-brick houses, and more modern residential developments that have been carefully integrated into the landscape. Interestingly, the name Whittington refers to the ‘ton’ or settlement associated with a person named Hwit. The local climate is typical of the North East Derbyshire region, with moderate rainfall and seasonal temperatures that require properties to be well-maintained to prevent weathering and moisture issues. Wildlife is frequently spotted in the green corridors and parks surrounding the district, with various bird species and small mammals being common residents. The community in Old Whittington is close-knit and active, with several local schools, a village green, and social clubs providing important meeting points for residents. The area is well-connected by local roads to the town centre of Chesterfield and the nearby M1 motorway, providing residents with easy access to modern amenities while retaining its distinct neighbourhood identity. Architectural styles are varied but consistently high in quality, with stone and local brick being the primary building materials used for centuries. This combination of deep political history, suburban comfort, and easy access to the surrounding towns makes Old Whittington a distinct part of the local landscape. The area continues to evolve, with ongoing improvements to the local housing ensuring that Old Whittington remains a vital and attractive residential hub for the Chesterfield area. Historically, the area was also home to several small coal mines and glassworks that supported the local workforce. Residents today enjoy a high quality of life with access to excellent green spaces and the nearby Sheepbridge industrial area.
