There's a lake/pond here, an old waterwheel at the side of the stone cottage - many pondskaters in the Summer, Herons and I saw a Kingfisher today ( who flew away when I tried to take a photo! )

At either end of the Tom Hulatt Mile between Pilsley and Tibshelf, there are memorials that celebrate the life of the Derbyshire athlete who came 3rd in the historic race in which Roger Bannister ran the first sub-four-minute mile in 1954. Hulatt worked in coal mines at Holmewood and Williamthorpe, walking the four miles there from his home in Tibshelf and running back along the old railway line. He died aged 59 in 1990 and is buried in the village churchyard.

There has been a church at Tibshelf since the twelfth century though no trace remains of the original building. The oldest remaining part of the church is the tower which dates from the 15th century. Parts of the north aisle date from 1729. The chancel and south aisle date from 1910 after a fire destroyed that which had been built in the 18th century. In the church yard are the graves of six local men who died in World War 1 and three who died in World War 2, as well as a war memorial with names of the fallen from the village.

Described as one of Bolsover District’s best kept secrets, Doe Hill Country Park is on the outskirts of Tibshelf and Newton, covering 43 hectares. It is a mix of broad-leaved woodland, species-rich grassland and wetland and is the perfect spot for scenic walks, bike rides, bird watching and a spot of photography. Personally, I didn't think it was all that scenic except for lake (which was the other side of a hedge) and the buttercups!
