Wirksworth Town Council

Wirksworth Town Council Wirksworth Town Council The Town Council was granted powers to deal with parish issues, and were appointed consultees on both parish and district matters.

The Wirksworth Town Council was established in 1972 to provide the town with a “local” authority upon the introduction of the West Derbyshire District Council in 1974 (later renamed the Derbyshire Dales District Council). The West Derbyshire District Council encompassed the former Urban and Rural District Councils at Ashbourne, Bakewell, Matlock and Wirksworth, and provided a centralised district authority based at Matlock.

Government has decided to replace 10 councils in Derby and Derbyshire with two unitary councils – one for the north and one for the south – to simplify local government for residents and make it more efficient.

Local councils were asked to put forward proposals for the future of local government in their area and Government decided that the two-council option proposed by district and borough councils was in the best interests of local residents and businesses.

It means residents in Derbyshire Dales, High Peak, Chesterfield, Bolsover and North East Derbyshire will receive services provided by a new council for the north area, while residents in Erewash, South Derbyshire and Derby will receive services provided by a new council for the south area.

The boundary line between the new north and south councils in Derbyshire will split Amber Valley in two. If you live in Amber Valley, your address will determine which new council provides your council services from 1 April 2028.
