Ashbourne Worktop Information

Ashbourne is a small market town in the Derbyshire Dales district, sometimes called the Gateway to the Dovedale, about 14 miles north-west of Derby and at the southern edge of the Peak District National Park. The DE6 postcode covers the town and the wide rural area of the Derbyshire Dales, including the Dove valley, the Manifold valley approaches, Brailsford, and the rural parishes toward Uttoxeter and the Staffordshire border. The town holds the Royal Shrovetide Football match each year, a folk football game played over two days on Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday between Up'ards and Down'ards, with the goals three miles apart. The game has been played in the town for centuries and attracts thousands of spectators. Dovedale, about 4 miles north of the town, is one of the most popular National Trust beauty spots in England, with limestone cliffs, stepping stones across the Dove, and a famous trout population. A five-bedroom country residence on the edge of the Peak District in DE6 was offered at a guide price of £6,000,000 in 2026, with rolling Derbyshire countryside and a magnificent elevated position. Average house prices in DE6 run above the Derbyshire average.
