What is/was Langley Mill Anyway?
replied on: 12/1/2005 10:43:56 AM

Langley Mill Town Hall was the Coop Hall-and our council was the Coop -at least the Coop commitee seemed to have more influence on facilities in langley Mill!
We always were led to believe the dividing line between Aldercar and Langley Mill was the railway line on Cromford Road which served the Coal Wharf.
At the other end -I think Dunstead Rd (Upper and Lower) was considered to be Aldercar until you reached Station Road.
Another thing which I always found odd-the council housing estate off Dunstead Road was always referred to as Aldercar Estate, but the council houses on and around Milnhay Road were just referred to as Milnhay-the Estate word was never used. May be that was a throw back to the time when the area around Milnhay Road was an area of Heanor known as Mill Hay?
