Bolsover and Shuttlewood — Neighbourhood Policing Team
Local policing team in the Derbyshire Constabulary area: contact routes, current priorities and public events.

It is located within Bolsover District Council and is approximately 6 miles from Chesterfield town centre. Bolsover has many attractions from the 17th century including the castle and buildings which now make shops and businesses in the town centre. There are also long walks which show the history of the castle and the strong mining heritage that Bolsover possesses.
