Waltham House is a new and exciting extra care development, located in the heart of the pretty market town of Wirksworth, which is one of the oldest towns in the area and is still one of those with the greatest character. Centred around its marketplace, where markets have been held since Edward I granted the right in 1306, it has many fine old buildings, with picturesque alleys and craftsmens’ yards.

Waltham House comprises 39 one and two bed apartments, with a mix of tenures, those being rent, shared ownership and outright sale. The old building itself is grade II listed and is being carefully restored to provide 5 of the 39 apartments, the remainder are being developed in the new building to the rear, formed around a central courtyard. The development has been made possible through the close working partnership between Housing 21, Derbyshire County Council, Derbyshire Dales District Council and the Wirksworth Care Centre Project.
