Owler Bar is a small area of settlement in Derbyshire, England. It is located just south of the border with Sheffield on the edge of the Peak District National Park. It lies at the junction of the A621 road with the B6054 and B6051 roads and is five miles west of Dronfield.
Despite its small size, the hamlet has two pubs: the Peacock and the Moorlands.[1] A cairn lies immediately north of the hamlet.[2] Notable residents have included rambler G. H. B. Ward.[3]
