Carsington Pasture is a scheduled ancient monument in Derbyshire comprising evidence of small-scale mining activity and medieval field systems. The site encompasses several named extraction sites including Nickalum, Perseverance, West Head, and Break Hollow, alongside associated ridge-and-furrow agricultural remains that reflect medieval land use patterns. The mines represent primarily early modern to later period mineral extraction, whilst the field boundaries and ploughed strips demonstrate the medieval agrarian organisation of the landscape. Together these features form an important archaeological record of rural economic activity spanning from the medieval period through to early industrial phases of land exploitation in the Derbyshire Peak District.
