Located in Derbyshire, near to Derby and Nottingham, Shipley Country Park offers over 650 acres of attractive and varied landscape.
Shipley Country Park achieved Green Flag Award status in July 2008. The Green Flag Award is the national standard for parks and green spaces in England and Wales.
The Shipley estate was developed during the 18th century as a country estate and coal mining area by the influential Miller Mundy family. Following the restoration of the old coal mines and opencast quarries, we opened the area as a country park in 1976.
Whatever the season, there is always lots to see and do in the park - walking, cycling, horse-riding, bird-watching, angling, picnicking, kite flying, jogging, wayfaring, photography, exploring the park and much more.
