West Handley is a hamlet in North East Derbyshire in the county of Derbyshire in England.
West Handley lies just south of the village of Marsh Lane, south-west of Eckington, East of Middle Handley and around 3 miles south of the village of Ridgeway.[1]
Although today the hamlet is nothing more than a group of large farm houses, the area was historically known for sickle smithing as well as farming.[2]
