Favourite Things: 'Breath-taking scenery right on the doorstep'
Birdhouse Tea
Our new homes and lettings team recently moved into new offices at Speedwell Works on Sidney Street in the City Centre, and Birdhouse Tea is located across the beautiful courtyard. They do fantastic coffee, breakfast and lunch, as well as brownies to die for! There is always a lovely chilled atmosphere every time you visit, and you will often find members of our team here at lunchtime enjoying one of the famous Buddha bowls. It is certainly worth a visit.

a couple of running pals. We haven't been out as much as we should this year though. I
completed the Redbrik Chesterfield Half Marathon at the end of October and it has given me

old with my Dad and you will always find at the Lane on a match day. The football that Chris
Wilder has the team playing is the best I have seen in my lifetime, and it is a genuine
pleasure to watch them.
