Hallowes Golf Club

Hallowes Golf Club is in Dronfield, a Derbyshire town that sits almost exactly between Sheffield and Chesterfield, close to where South Yorkshire's urban edge meets the Peak District's eastern moors. The S18 postcode reflects Dronfield's position within the Sheffield postal district despite being administratively part of Derbyshire, a quirk common to towns along this stretch of the county boundary. The surrounding landscape rises from the Sheffield conurbation towards the gritstone edges of the Peak District National Park, with Big Moor and Curbar Edge visible a few miles to the west. Dronfield itself developed around coal mining, quarrying and light industry before becoming largely residential, and its parkland areas, including the golf course, sit on the rolling ground typical of this transitional zone between Yorkshire's industrial valleys and the higher Derbyshire moors. Chesterfield, with its distinctive crooked spire, lies a short distance to the south, giving golfers here a base within reach of both towns' amenities.
