Map of Wirksworth Area


    Here is a modern map to show the places in the "Wirksworth Area". This is roughly the area of the old Wirksworth parish in the 17th Century, with the town of Matlock added. In later centuries Wirksworth parish decreased in area as parts were given their own Parish status to cope with increasing population. Census districts for 1841-1891 have been chosen to cover the same area. Check the Parish Register List to see the Parish Registers held at the Derbyshire Record Office at Matlock.
