A Chatsworth Rd Community Project: We need your help!

13 April 2026

Bringing a community together to celebrate its rich history.

We’re challenging both ourselves, our students and the local community to take on the derelict public toilets on Chatsworth Road, Chesterfield, with the aim of turning the site into a celebration of both the area’s rich history and the current vibrant social and business scene.

We want to show what Chatsworth Road has looked like over the years, it’s industrial heritage and successes, alongside a clear map/key of the road as it is now, including all of the businesses on it so visitors know just what is on offer.

What/who is needed:

Businesses

  • Sponsorship of site production – this could be financial or help with the doing. We’ll need help with groundworks, possible brickwork/joinery/fabrication and engineering/print production/garden and or horticulture works
  • Wherever possible we’d like our students to be included in the work too. Can they help with the doing, the preparation, the installation, the research and design?

Schools

  • Involvement with history research
  • Installing and maintenance of landscaping/planting aspects of the project?
  • Artwork projects?

Residents

  • Could you help with researching the history of the area?
  • Are you able to volunteer any time in installing the landscaping/green aspects of the project?

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

If you think you can help with any aspect of this project, we want to meet you! Our good friends at Brampton Brewery are hosting an evening for anyone interested in the project to get together and discuss the art of the possible on 11TH JUNE 5.30-7PM AT BRAMPTON BREWERY, CHATSWORTH ROAD S40 2AS.
