About Newtown

Newtown lies in Derbyshire's High Peak, straddling the border with Greater Manchester where the Pennines begin to rise. The A6 provides the main route, linking Manchester (25km northwest) and Buxton (20km southeast), whilst the dramatic A57 Snake Pass heads east toward Sheffield. With approximately 150 public EV chargers nearby and excellent access to both industrial northwest England and Peak District moorland, it's a convenient base for exploring contrasting landscapes. The village retains one of the region's few working red telephone boxes on its main street.
