PADFIELD, a hamlet and village, pleasantly situated, overlooking the river Etherow, 1½ miles N.W. from Glossop, contains 643 acres of land, 284 houses, and 1,656 inhabitants, of whom 815 were males, and 841 females. The Sheffield and Manchester Railway crosses the village. The Methodists have a chapel erected in 1828, and the Independents one erected the same year, with Sunday schools. Here are three factories. A few years ago, a man getting stones dug up a number of Roman coins in a good state of preservation.
