Starting in September, the end of the nesting season, a new roundabout will be built on the Sheepbridge junction of the A61 bypass and a road laid directly into the 300-acre plot at Unstone. It will pave the way for construction traffic set to build the first phase of the scheme.
At the same time, footpaths and bridleways will be diverted and a fence built around the former opencast site.
The project is a partnership with American company Grand Heritage Hotel Group.
Landowner Rupert Carr, of Birchall Properties, said it would be the culmination of 28 years’ work.
He said: “The Prime Minister made an announcement about the joint venture and I got a phone call from the economic development team at Chesterfield Borough Council about an infrastructure grant. It was essential for my American partners coming into it.

Well, modified plans to this are now being discussed, which includes a David Lloyd Adrenelin World, with daily visitors, not just residential. Residents who love near the Brushes, Sheepbridge, may well want to look at these amendments....
