Queen's Head Hotel

Built as part of the extension of Knifesmithgate in 1926, architects Wilcockson & Cutts, for the Home Brewery of Nottingham. The nearer building is the former Queen's Head Hotel whilst the further end incorporated the car showrooms of Service Motors.

There are a large number of black and white buildings in the town dating from the inter-war period. This is due to improvements to the town centre following the 1914 Chesterfield Corporation Act which involved widening of streets and removal of slum property. The breweries owning many of the public houses in the town centre were heavily involved in this redevelopment and their architects largely favoured the mock-Tudor style.

Wilcockson and Cutts was employed by the local Chesterfield and Brampton Breweries, Home Brewery of Nottingham and Scarsdale Brewery, as well as being responsible for a few other buildings. James R Wigfull, architect to Stones Brewery of Sheffield, was responsible for around a dozen of their public houses in the town.
