Great Northern Railway Path
At one time Kimberley had two railways. The former Great Northern line between Nottingham and Derby outlasted the old Midland route but was in the end a casualty of the Beeching era, closing to passengers in 1964 and completely four years later. Here the old trackbed has been converted into a path and access is available from Church Hill. The British Transport Commission style station sign advertises the path's presence.

High Street, Kimberley
Not the main road through the town, as one might suppose, but runs parallel to Main Street at a higher level. Literally a high street!

Kimberley Church
Holy Trinity Church on Church Hill was consecrated in 1847 at a time when the population of the area was rapidly expanding. Kimberley, although an ancient settlement mentioned in the Domesday Book (as Chinemarelie), was a part of the parish of Greasley and the original intention was that the new building should act as a chapel of ease to Greasley Church. Kimberley became a parish in 1851, albeit with a curate in charge and an arrangement under which ecclesiastical fees were retained by the vicar of Greasley until the end of his incumbency, which occurred in 1866. More recently, the church underwent a major restoration in 1937.
