Building of the church began in 1234 AD, though the present church dates predominantly from the 14th century. Designated a Grade I listed building in 1971, St Mary's is best known for its twisted and leaning spire (known as the Crooked Spire). It is the largest parish church in the Diocese of Derby and forms part of the Archdeaconry of Chesterfield. In 1994, it also became the UK's only representative in the Association of the Twisted Spires of Europe; of the 72 member churches, it is deemed to have the greatest lean and twist.

By Liz Lemon. Inspired by the geological and industrial history of the site, home of both prehistoric fossils and, in more recent times, the Markham Engineering Works, a work that fuses organic and mechanical forms. Known locally as ‘The Snail’, the sculpture’s spiralling form simultaneously echoes the casings of the huge water-turbines once made at the Markham works and the tiny, fossilised creatures found in local coal measures. At night, internal, pulsating blue and green fibre-optic lights glow through the ‘portholes’, reflecting and enlivening the sculpture’s metallic surface. The sculpture’s relation to its site is further emphasised by inscriptions in the base replicating former Markham employees’ signatures.

Spital Park offers a peaceful setting for walkers, spread across 38.0 acres.

St Leonard’s Mission Church, built in 1895, is the daughter church of St Mary & All Saints Church and serves Spital, a suburb of Chesterfield. The name ‘Spital’ is derived from a 13th century Leper Hospital which was located nearby and dedicated to God in honour of St. Leonard.

A number of slats were missing. I wouldn't advise using it in the dark. 😅

This is in the centre of Chesterfield, there are some tidy, historical buildings. These have sheltered walkways underneath them

Nice rooty & undulating section through the trees alongside the Golf Course & the "Lagoons", good any time of the year.
