Village on outskirts of Derby, England

Chellaston is a suburban village on the southern outskirts of Derby, in Derbyshire, England.

An early mention of Chellaston is thought to be a reference to Ceolarde's hill. This is mentioned in a 1009 charter when nearby land was given to Morcar by Ethelred the Unready. Historically, Chellaston has been part of the Hundred of Repton and Gresley. Chellaston was a separate village and was worth three shillings when the king gave it to Henry de Ferrers in the 11th century. It is mentioned as "Celerdestune" in the Domesday Book. Throughout the centuries, Chellaston grew slowly. By 1676, the village had grown to a population of around 140, and there were still only 42 houses in Chellaston in 1789. Chellaston was once one of the largest producers of mined alabaster in the United Kingdom, which was used to produce Nottingham Alabaster. By the end of the 18th century, Chellaston was exporting its poor grades of alabaster as gypsum and it was transported via the local canals for markets in Derby and The Potteries. It was even used by Josiah Wedgwood for plaster moulds to shape his pottery. The remains of Chellaston's pits can be found at the bottom of Pit Close Lane and Woodgate Drive, and the site is now popular with BMX bikers and teenagers. Chellaston grew substantially between 1880 and 1950, with a number of areas being developed for housing. These developments included housing around Glenwood Road, Station Road, and north of Sutton Avenue. After 1950, the village grew even more: houses were built in the Springfield Road and St Peter's Road areas, among others. In local council elections, Chellaston is part of the Chellaston ward. The current councillors for Chellaston and Shelton Lock are Conservative's Harvey Jennings and two independent candidates, husband & wife, Philip and Celia Ingall as of 6 May 2022, with Celia replacing Conservative councillor, Ross McCristal. In 1961 the civil parish had a population of 3702. On 1 April 1968 the parish was abolished and merged with Derby, Elvaston, Aston upon Trent and Swarkestone. It is now in the unparished area of Derby, in the Derby district.

Chellaston lies about 5 mile (8 km) south of Derby city centre, and is the southernmost part of the city. It borders Shelton Lock to the north and South Derbyshire to the south. The southern edge of Chellaston also known as Chellaston Fields, formed by Regents Place Estate and the adjacent Retail Park, falls under South Derbyshire District and isn’t part of Derby City.

At the 2011 United Kingdom census the population was 15,198 an increase of 24.95% from 2001. 86.2% are White British, compared to 75.3% for Derby as a whole. + Population of Chellaston YearPop. 1676~140 1829~400 1835352 1841461 1857499 1871565 1881498 1891497 1911795 1921820 200112,163 201115,198

Chellaston has a Co operative supermarket on the corner of High Street and Derby Road. The Post Office is located on Derby Road near Station Road, next to Chellaston Garage (a small car repair business) and a Cantonese takeaway – Ming's Court (which used to be a petrol station). A Tesco Express was housed on the site next to the garage until April 2011, when it moved to new premises in the former Red Lion public house.

No.4 Swarkestone Road probably originates from the 16th century but has been much altered since. White House Farm on the High Street is a Grade II listed farmhouse and stables dating from the early 18th century. Pear Tree Cottage at No.49 Derby Road has a plaque dated 1799, though this date is disputed. Opposite the church, at No.84 High Street, is the former village shop, which is Grade II listed as it is relatively unchanged since the early 19th century.

The main road through Chellaston is Derby Road A514, which becomes Swarkestone Road at the crossroads with High Street. Approximately 1000 new homes have been built to the west of Chellaston, close to the route of the disused and in filled Derby Canal. Formerly, the suburb had its own railway station (at the bottom of Station Road), but little trace of the site exists today. The station's full name was Chellaston and Swarkestone. The main public transport link is the bus service, which journeys either side of Chellaston as far as Derby and Swadlincote.

There are five schools; Chellaston Infant School on School Lane, Chellaston Junior School on Maple Drive, Homefields Primary School on Parkway and Chellaston Academy (senior school and 6th form college) on Swarkestone Road. Chellaston Academy's catchment area includes the nearby villages of Melbourne, Aston on Trent, Ticknall, Barrow upon Trent and Weston on Trent. Chellaston Fields is the fifth school,located near Aldi which is on the outskirts of the village, towards the A50 and Swarkestone.

There are two churches in Chellaston: St. Peter's Church (Church of England) on St. Peter's Road, and the Methodist Church on High Street. St. Peter's dates from the 15th century although it was largely rebuilt in 1842. The two churches have a signed an ecumenical covenant together, and hold a joint service every month. There used to be a Baptist church in Chellaston near Pear Tree Cottage on Derby Road. There also used to be the St. Ralph Sherwin Church Catholic on Swarkestone Road next to Chellaston School, but this was demolished in 2019 along with the Rose and Crown pub to make way for a Lidl supermarket.
