The ‘twin’ urban towns of Long Eaton and Ilkeston share the Borough with the many rural villages that nestle in the countryside. Erewash is a Borough of sharp contrasts with busy town and rural areas and parks, rivers and its picturesque canal network. Erewash is proud of its lace and furniture-making heritage and industrial history. We are easy to find and have excellent communication links. The M1 motorway runs through the Borough, while good bus services link all parts of the area with towns and cities throughout the Midlands. In addition, we have Long Eaton Station on the busy Midland Mainline route. East Midlands Airport, with its growing domestic and overseas services is also very close by.
