Bolsover Cundy House is a recently restored 17th century conduit house that was used to supply water to the nearby Bolsover Castle. It is located near Houfton Road in Bolsover. In the middle of the building is the brick water tank, which still collects water. It was built in the early 17th century and supplied water to the cistern house of Bolsover Castle until the 1920s. The roof is a solid stone vault to make it secure and impervious to decay, unlike timber.A scheme to restore the conduit house was carried out in 2002-03 as part of a joint initiative between English Heritage, Bolsover Civic Society, and the local town and district councils. The aims of the project were to preserve the building, remove a safety hazard, and to raise the profile of this historic structure.Bolsover Cundy House is in the care of English Heritage and managed by Bolsover Civic Society.

Bolsover (, and commonly ) is a constituency in Derbyshire, represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament by Mark Fletcher, a member of the Conservative Party. The constituency was created in 1950, and is centred on the town of Bolsover. Between 1970 and 2019, the constituency was represented by Labour's Dennis Skinner, who by 2019 was the oldest member of the House of Commons and the second longest-serving. At the constituency's inception it was one of the safest Labour seats in the country, but over the following half century Skinner's vote share dropped from 77% in 1970, still holding a high vote share of 65% in 2005, to only 36% in 2019, with the result that he lost the seat to the Conservatives by a margin of 11%.

Stanfree is a community/village in Bolsover (district), county of Derbyshire, consisting of a couple of rows of terraced cottages, lying halfway between Shuttlewood and Clowne. It is mentioned in Bagshaw's directory of 1846 and states "a hamlet about 2 and a quarter miles north from Bolsover market place". It is thought by some to draw its name from the fact that, though in a stoney neighbourhood, it is free from surface stone, or it may have a Roman or British origin. Iron seems to have been smelted here in primitive ages, and coal was worked some 500 years ago. Remains of the workings of both can be found. The four roads meeting here are said by tradition to have once been the main roads of England and Stanfree to have been a special meeting place. The local colliery that was a drift mine was closed in 1974. Only the Oxcroft Miners' Welfare, that was destroyed by fire in the late 1980s and rebuilt on the site of the cricket pavilion, is the lasting reminder that a colliery once stood there. The Appletree Inn on the corner of Appletree Road and Clowne Road closed in 2008.

Oxcroft is a small hamlet in Bolsover (district), Derbyshire in England, located to the north of Bolsover, about 1–2 miles along the Clowne-New Houghton Road. It consists of a few farms and cottages. Etymology: Probably simply meaning an Ox cottage/farm. Ox = Ox, Croft = Farm/Cottage.

The Town Hall has had a chequered history. Built as a Primitive Methodist Chapel, it later transferred to the Salvation Army and in 1911 first became council offices. In 1948 all council functions transferred to nearby Sherwood Lodge, now along with a 1990s extension home to Bolsover (district) Council. The Town Hall on Cotton Street then became the town's first Public Library, a branch of Derbyshire County Library. Following the erection of the new library nearby, it reverted to its council function as offices for Old Bolsover Town Council.
