Nestled between the towns of Ripley and Belper lies the charming village of Heage, Derbyshire. This scattered village is divided into two parts, Heage and Nether Heage, both home to rustic cottages and quaint lanes but neither possessing a centre. The name 'Heage' is Anglo-Saxon, meaning sublime or high and is fitting considering the hilly backdrop and greenery. The land has a rich history of farming and this is evident with its ancient farmhouses and working farms today, as well as the historic Morley Park, which was previously a coal mining and ironworks major setting. Within easy reach is the stunning reservoir of Carsington Water, the spectacular Grade II Riber Castle and Cromford Mills for a guided tour around a 1800s water-powered cotton mill. The friendly village of Heage is also a fantastic base for exploring the wonderful Peak District National Park and the glorious Sherwood Forest.
