Sawmills

England

Sawmills lies in Derbyshire's Amber Valley, accessible via the A6 through the Derwent Valley or the A610 from Nottingham and the M1. Local routes connect Belper and Ripley, whilst longer journeys typically use Junction 28 of the M1, about 12 miles east. The village sits amongst former mill sites along the River Derwent, taking its name from the water-powered sawmills that once operated here alongside Belper's famous cotton mills.
