There are plenty of pubs and nightclubs that were loved by Chesterfield revellers down the years – but have sadly closed their doors for good.
These are 13 venues that are likely to be missed most by people in the town – is there anywhere else you think should be included in this list?

10. Zanzibar
This Art Deco-style building in Chesterfield has plenty of history. Sixties star Jimi Hendrix performed there, hundreds of films were screened and thousands of revellers flocked to the building. Following its closure as a cinema in the early 90s, the building housed several nightclubs, including Zanzibar, Escapade and Department - with the latter shutting its doors for the last time over a decade ago.

11. Spires
The Painted Wagon was later re-christened as Spires, before eventually becoming part of the Zanzibar nightclub. The ground floor of the building is now occupied by homeware retailer Boyes. Photo: Submitted
