Stanfree

Stanfree

Stanfree is a community/village in the Bolsover district of Derbyshire, consisting of a couple of rows of terraced cottages, lying halfway between Shuttlewood and Clowne. It is mentioned in Bagshaw's directory of 1846 and states "a hamlet about 2 and a quarter miles north from Bolsover market place". It is thought by some to draw its name from the fact that, though in a stoney neighbourhood, it is free from surface stone, or it may have a Roman or British origin. Iron seems to have been smelted
