More information about Mayfield

Mayfield is a civil parish in the Derbyshire, England, located in the North East Derbyshire District. It is situated close to the River May, which begins at Eastwood, a nearby village. It stretches from Belper in the north, to Little Eaton in the south, and from Draycott in the east to Kilburn in the west. It is also bordered by Duffield, Horsley and Denby. Despite its small size, Mayfield is a large and vibrant village, a hub of car industry, finance industry and motorsport.

History

Mayfield village was originally known as Maueldeld and was an Anglo-Saxon settlement at the junction of two Roman roads - the major Roman A38, and the military road (now the B road Romley Wood Road). The village was mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086 and in 1327 it was known as Maufeld and in 1397, Maufeild. The Mayfield name was first mentioned in records in 1531.

During the 19th century, Mayfield developed rapidly with the arrival of silk, cotton and coal industries, as well as rail and road transport. By the beginning of the 20th century, it had become an important centre of industry, with several large companies setting up their headquarters here. The advent of modern technology, however, led to a gradual decline in many of these industries, until the late 1980s when a new wave of car industry, finance industry and motorsport investment began to shape the character of the village.

Car Industry

The car industry of Mayfield began taking shape in the 1990s, when the Toyota Corolla production facility opened in 1995. This was followed by the Mazda Motor Corporation in 2004, bringing more jobs and opportunities to the village. The Corolla production site is now home to a number of car manufacturers from across the world, including Peugeot, Citroen, Renault and SEAT. As a result, Mayfield has become a major hub of car production in the UK and Europe, especially for European-manufactured vehicles.

The village's motor manufacturing heritage is celebrated every summer with the Mayfield Motor Show. Held in Mayfield Park, the show was originally established in 1998 and attracts visitors from across the UK and Europe. It often features vintage cars, new models and provides a great opportunity for car enthusiasts to admire the latest cars.

Finance Industry

The finance industry has been a major contributor to the Mayfield economy since the mid-1990s. It is home to a number of financial institutions, such as banks, insurance companies, financial advisors and stockbrokers. The Mayfield Financial Centre, located in the heart of the village, is a major hub of finance activity. It is one of the largest in the UK and houses a number of banks, as well as online banking facilities. It is also home to the European Investment Bank, which provides funds and loans to businesses in the Mayfield region.

Motorsport

Mayfield is also the home of motorsport, with the village hosting multiple racing events every year. The Mayfield Motorsport Circuit is located at the north end of the village and has been used for Formula One, Formula Two and Formula Three races since 1998. It also holds a number of other national and international motorsport events.

The village is also home to the Mayfield Racing School, which offers a range of courses for aspiring racers. This school allows those of all ages to learn the skills and techniques required for race driving, from basic track driving to racing strategy.
