The Birches woodland walks are a short distance from the bridge over the Derwent.

The national tramway museum. From outside it looked like a very nice tourist attraction with fully working trams. Dogs are welcome.

There was a church in existence by 1343 as Nicholas of High Edge (Heage) is recorded as the first priest. The medieval church was nearly all destroyed in a storm on 20 June 1545. The church was rebuilt between 1646 and 1661 incorporating the old east window. The church was expanded in 1826 and in 1847 the church floor was relaid and a heating system was installed. At the same time as these improvements, the churchyard was consecrated by the Bishop of Lichfield on 9 June 1847 for burials.Further restorations took place in 1856. The east window had stained glass installed. The previous heating apparatus was found to be ineffective and was replaced with a hot water system. A new inner porch was added to the door and the vestry was enlarged. Another restoration was needed by 1897. The church was closed for 1 year and 9 months because of a lack of agreement on the position of the altar and communion rails. The dispute ended up in the Consistory Court. In the end, they remained in their original location.

Closed from 6th November to Mothering Sunday

St. Andrew's Church. In 1856 the Revd John Wood gave land for a church to be built in Swanwick. With the aid of a donation of £3,230 from Francis Wright the building was completed in 1859 with a nave of five bays, north and south aisles, north porch and bell turret over the west gable. The pointed arches on both sides of the nave and in the chancel imply that the architect, Benjamin Wilson, had Early English architecture in mind when he designed the building. The Church celebrated its 150th Anniversary on Sunday 26 September 2010. The Bishop of Derby, the Rt Revd Dr. Alastair Redfern, presided at a celebratory service.

The church dates from the 12th century. The aisle and nave windows were redone in 1803 and the chancel was refashioned in 1877. The font dates from the 12th century.
