Inkersall and Inkersall Green are areas of settlement in Derbyshire, England. They are located south of the A619 road, 2 miles east of Chesterfield.
The history of Inkersall was affected by nearby Rufford Abbey. The English Pope, Adrian IV gave his blessing for the abbey in 1156 and following this the abbey's lands expanded and the villagers of Cratley, Rufford, Grimston and Inkersall were evicted.[1]
