About Matlock Bridge

Matlock Bridge lies at the heart of Matlock in Derbyshire, where the A6 crosses the River Derwent through the Peak District's limestone valleys. The main approach is via Junction 28 of the M1, then A38 north and A615 west to join the A6. With over 90 fast chargers nearby, it's well-equipped for electric vehicles exploring the Peaks. The elegant three-arched stone bridge from 1818 carries the A6 over the Derwent, replacing a medieval crossing that gave the town its name.
