There can be few areas of the country so rich in micropubs as here along the old road from Nottingham to Heanor. One of them is the Miners Return sandwiched between a convenience store and a fish and chip shop on Eastwood Road at Kimberley. This was the site of Kimberley Miners' Welfare (a social club) and the mining heritage is acknowledged in the name of the pub.
