  Dronfield - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dronfield is a town in North East Derbyshire, England, situated between Sheffield and Chesterfield on the River Drone.
Dronfield's population has increased dramatically in post war years from 6,500 in 1945 to it's current size mainly as a dormitory community for workers from the nearby city of Sheffield, which has in the past attempted to bring the town within it's own boundaries.
Dronfield Woodhouse once boasted a status of being the largest privately-owned housing estate in Europe when it was first built in the 1970s.

 Dronfield | About Dronfield | History
Not much is known about Dronfield from its origins up to and beyond the Norman Conquest, apart from the fact that it seems to have suffered considerably during William I's harrying of the North, perhaps as a punishment for insurrection and non-co-operation with the Normans.
Apart from the church, known vestiges of Dronfield's mediaeval past remain in buildings such as the Green Dragon Inn, once the hall of the chantry priests and the headquarters of the Guild of the Blessed Virgin Mary, established in 1349.
Studies of Dronfield from 1535-1650 have shown that many farmers had sizeable sheep flocks and that a significant number of families were engaged in spinning and weaving, in fuelling and in the production and selling of cloth.
