58 GREENAWAY LANE

Hackney (including Upper Hackney) is a charming and highly desirable hillside hamlet situated just north-west of Matlock, commanding elevated views across the Derwent Valley. Positioned along the eastern slopes above the River Derwent towards Darley Dale, the settlement is characterized by its attractive stone-built period cottages, conversion properties, and peaceful country lanes. Hackney offers a delightful semi-rural atmosphere with a strong community feel, home to the well-regarded Darley Dale Primary School on Greenaway Lane as well as historic landmarks like its converted 19th-century chapels. Residents enjoy immediate access to surrounding fields and footpaths, while remaining just a short walk or drive from the everyday shops, cafes, and health services of both Matlock town centre and Darley Dale.

The hamlet lies just 1.5 miles from the centre of Matlock, 2 miles from Darley Dale, and within easy reach of the popular market towns of Bakewell (6.5 miles) and Chesterfield (9.5 miles). Situated just off the main A6 trunk road, there is swift access to Derby (20 miles) and Sheffield (20 miles), while nearby Matlock station provides a regular branch line rail service connecting directly to Derby and Nottingham, and onward to London St Pancras. Bordered by scenic walking routes and the historic Peak Rail steam railway in the valley below, Hackney is an ideal spot for those wanting a retreat just moments from Matlock's popular centre.
