What's on in Carsington

Carsington sits quietly in Derbyshire, tucked away where the hills are kinder and the air is a bit fresher than down on the main road. With no big venues to shout about, the local scene relies on community halls and village greens that always seem ready for a game of cricket or a summer fair. It is a place where neighbours know each other's names and the weekend plans spread like gossip over a cup of tea. When the weather turns wet, the town still finds ways to gather without needing a stadium or a theatre. Even if the only event is a local club meeting or a garden party in someone's back yard, there is plenty of warmth to be found. Near Here keeps track of all those little gatherings so you do not have to wander the high street looking for something to do.
