Introduction
This site is no longer being updated
Ticknall,
South Derbyshire, is a small, attractive and peaceful place. It has
three pubs, several small businesses, a re-opened village shop and an independent primary school.
Two hundred years ago it was
considerably larger and noisier with lime quarries, tramways and
potteries. Coal was also dug close to the village. 
Ticknall was an estate village to Calke Abbey until about 30 years
ago and this has prevented it from becoming a mundane dormitory village
for commuters.

The Wheel PH has re-opened, review here.
