Chapeltown is in northern Sheffield, in South Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, it forms part of the Ecclesfield civil parish. There are a wide variety of shops, pubs and restaurants as well as an Asda superstore. Sheffield Library also has a branch in Chapeltown called Chapeltown Library as well as a subway.
The town also has a twice-weekly market (Tuesday and Friday).
Like much of Sheffield there is a large amount of greenspace in and around Chapeltown. The town centre has a cricket ground and a wooded park on either side of it. Between Chapeltown and Ecclesfield the land is used for residential purposes on one side of the main road and agricultural on the other. There is also a brownfield site above the park.
It has two railway stations, one being a disused and allegedly haunted passenger station which is very well hidden in nearby overgrown woodlands, plus the railway station next to the Asda supermarket which is on the Penistone Line. Chapeltown is near the M1 motorway. There are two junctions (35 and 35a) serving the town: the latter is mainly used by Thorncliffe industrial estate, which contains the head office of Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions among other companies. There are also regular bus services into Sheffield and additional services to Barnsley and Rotherham town centres.
