- Matlock Town is sits in the Derbyshire Peak District of the UK next to Matlock Bath and close to Sheffield, Chesterfield and Derby. This is a walking tour of Matlock Town Centre
Also watch our tour of nearby Matlock Bath 👉 • MATLOCK BATH Derbyshir...
We took the cameras down into the Peak District National Park in the East Midlands and found Matlock Town Centre slap bang right in between Derby and Sheffield. So we thought it would be a good idea to do a full walking tour of Matlock to show you the streets, the buildings and what is happening here.
Matlock is the county town of Derbyshire England. The former spa town of Matlock Bath sits immediately south of the town and is well worth a visit in it's own right due to the tourist attractions there (and to see the sheer number of fish and chip shops!)
The Shane Meadows movie Dead Mans Shoes was filmed in and around Matlock Town Centre and the wider area in Matlock Dale.
Our Matlock Town walk starts on Dale Road overlooking the River Derwent and we pass underneath the railway bridge that takes the trains in and out of Matlock Train Station.
Walking up Dale Street we pass some noteable places and buildings such as Monk Bar, Riverside Antique Shop, Little Shabby Hen, the old Market Hall and the landmark Olde English Hotel building on the corner of Dale Road and Olde English Road.
Also on the route is W Evans and Son Jewellers Ltd which has been trading in the building with the old clock since 1851 right here in the Matlock Peak District.
Plenty of shops, antique shops and food shops and takeaways line Dale Road which is a busy road as you will see by the volume of traffic going through Matlock Town Centre.
As we reach the end of Dale Road we take a little look up the hill that runs up behind the railway station and then take a right onto Snitterton Road and onto the bridge that sits over the River Derwent.
Our route then takes us along Snitterton Road and round the roundabout onto Bakewell Road before coming round to see Bank Road which used to have a tramway system to take people up and down the road into the town centre!
We then head onto Causeway Lane from where we can see Halls Ley Park. We head along Causeway Lane until we reach the Cafe In The Park at which point we head into Halls Ley Park and down to the victorian Bandstand which is home to many concerts and events held in the park.
Then it's a quick look at the Matlock Flood markers and onto the bridge over to Olde English Car Park and Cool River Cafe and then up to the main high street here in Matlock Town Centre, Dale Road.

Lovely memories of when I spent my school days in Matlock in the 1960s. I lived at the top of Snitterton Road. Later moved to Germany and my Mother to Cornwall. Still in touch with my best school friends. I keep looking at your video when iI get home sick. My last visit was before Covid!
I live in Canada now it was nice to see my old town.Thank you for the great video
You’re welcome
Hope you are safe and well ❤️
Hey me too! I was in Mississauga, Ontario but I'm too soft for those winters so I moved to BC!
I left south Sheffield with my parents 70 years ago for overseas. We used to visit many places such as Matlock. I loved the general area and at 87 I still miss the general area very much.
Lovely area
Beautiful England.
👍👍👍
The pillars were the entrance to the royal bank of Scotland
Brilliant video of my home town thank you
I come originally from Buxton, but Matlock has some lovely clean streets and very pleasant looking buildings, with a good variety of shops. The park looks most excellent. Many thanks.
Thanks for yet another great video keep on walking 🚶🏻♂️🚶🏻♂️👍👍
Thanks 👍👍
Another great & fantastic video of MATLOCK Derbyshire | Full walking tour of Matlock Town Centre in the Peak District, England.!.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Thank you!
We love Matlock, its a great place for Antique Shops !!!
Oh yes!
Thank you for a lovely walk abou. I just knew Matlock had something to do with Oak trees, is why so drawn to the place. Is much ancien hidden history in his area :-)
Another lovely picturesque town walk! I don't think I've been here before so thanks once again for the invite and look forward to the next time! :)
Living in Derbyshire in the 50s and 60s I sent several hundred hours in Matlock in the 60s, principally because it was a fabulous motorcycle route from Stanton by Dale and then Ripley. For me Matlock secured its principal fame due to every weekend literally hundreds of motorcycles being parked on its main road. It appeared to be the main meeting centre for midlands' bikers.
It appears from this video that no parking is now allowed on the main road, and no massive bike centre has been opened to facilitate parking, bikers' meals etc. So whether or not it remains such bikers' mega meeting place I don't know?
Many bikers now congregate just down the road at Matlock Bath.
We are Living in beautiful matlock ✨️✨️❤❤
Nice - lovely place!
Nice just came back from
New mills /Buxton Derbyshire
13/8/21 it lovely up there
Thanks .
One day would love to visit Matlock and Matlock Bath, guessing that’s where my family came from, eons ago…. 😂
You should look into it - with a surname like that you might actually OWN the place 🤣
Hi great filming of Matlock, but you missed the boating lake, riber castle 🏰, the football ground and peak practice was also filmed in and around matlock👍😃
The latter filmed also at South Wingfiekd.
Nice to see the flags, must have known you were coming 😀
ha ha yes or heard my horse drawn carriage arriving!
The ' pillars ' next to Snitterton Road were previously the entrance to the Royal Bank of Scotland building, which closed for good, and before the pandemic started.
Ah thank you David - very picturesque bank entrance!
We recently stayed in Matlock, lovely video you did,spot on, brought back nice memories.Thank you..
Love the sound of the river
I live in matlock and there was also a flood in 2019. It wasn't quite so devastating but it did temporarily close many businesses and stopped people getting through the town centre.
Loving the old buildings
It's Great to see Most of the Towns Paving has been replaced with Tarmac..Does anyone Remember Elegant Paving stones in British Towns?. Adding a Simple Elegance..
Crown square is all paved NOT tarmac
@@fred2136fred aye, hes got it b2f.
Nor mention of Wine House nor original Crown as crossing bridge
@@suzyqualcast6269 I’ve lived in Matlock for47 years but I thought Matlock was on the outskirts of the Peak District not in it .? If he wants to film areas good on him but he should get his facts right
The Garden room Cafe is great by the way! Would highly recommend if you're visiting Matlock. Lovely selection of drinks and cakes!
Great named shops 😀
Pillars :- entrance to now closed RBS.
SG - Dethick, way outta town up off the Alfreton Road, above Lea.
My ancestor Thomas Flint immigrated to America from Matlock in 1635. Interested to know if any Flints are living in Matlock. I saw a nearby Flint Lane on a map.
Adam Flint
Nice video. I live on Cavendish Road which is right at the top of the hill, even higher than the top of Bank Road.
We had snow there last year while it was raining in the town centre. About an additional 400 feet in elevation!
oh my word - bet that was fun!
I did a college practicum at Matlock infants school. I used to ride my bicycle along Smedley street and bomb down Bank road. It was great! Steep, long and no traffic lights til the bottom.
Not been here in years
Love the city parks 👍
It’s a town 🙄
“ city “ ... got to be American 😃😃
Full walking tour for Mexborough? Thank you!!!
U got a new sub
Awesome! Welcome aboard!
@@GimbalWalkTV yw
Matlock is not in the Peak District but very close to
Ah I got my info off Google here - www.google.com/search?q=matlock+peack+district&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB977GB977&oq=matlock+peack+district&aqs=chrome..69i57j46i13i512j0i13i512l3j0i22i30l4.3685j1j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
Looks like I was hoodwinked! 🤣
If you hire a boat in Matlock Bath remember to say hello to Paul and ask him how Mary is, you won't get a discount but he will wonder how you know his name lol
I live in Matlock
Nice! hopefully you like it there 👍
Yes I love Matlock it so beautiful 😇
good tour missed a lot due to road being shut
👍👍👍
It’s a bigger place than you think as you walk around. It would be great if you stated where you parked and prices. I know it maybe boring but you may find places to park that are better than the main car parks that can be expensive. Great video, keep on walking 😀
Oh believe me you don’t want to copy my parking habits - I get more tickets than anyone I know 🤣
@@GimbalWalkTV whoops 😅 🤣
@@nataliesmith303 Hi ya, I am recently being there,too. Also wondering about where to park if you are a resident near Matlock town center, it seemed like they don't have parking space in front of their house doors?
@@fayemeghan9396 I managed to park up at the train station and paid about £3.50. It only took 30 minutes or so to walk back to Matlock bath. The car park in between the two was full, so was the one by the mill, so was the one by the midland pub and the roadside ones weren’t long enough times. In fact mr parking warden had already given two cars tickets😬 I suppose some residents may not bother with cars
Three devastating floods!….2019….
Crikey! That’s a nightmare
@@GimbalWalkTV …we don’t do things by halves here in the Peaks!….😘😎
Was this filmed on St George's Day, there are so many flags around?
Ah my home town /hj
Dang I thought it was the same place
Me too until I got there to film this!
@@GimbalWalkTV lol yeah
Foilage?…..what’s that then ?….🤣😂😀
🤣🤣
TukTuk....it's an Indian restaurant
Matlock isn’t in the Peak District
I think you’re correct
My error
To much traffic. The only escape is the park.
That park is lovely too!

Matlock is not in the peak district😂😂😂😂😂
