Amazing photos from yesteryear show changing face of Chesterfield town centre

It’s one of the main routes through Chesterfield and is home to the Winding Wheel and Eyres department store, but Holywell Street has changed a lot over the years.

We've teamed up with Chesterfield Museum, run by Chesterfield Borough Council, to dig out these great archive pictures of the area in the past – alongside images of how the place looks today.

If you enjoyed this stroll down memory lane, have a look at these now and then photos from Ashgate and Hasland.

And why not join the Derbyshire Times retro Facebook group for even more nostalgia photos?
