This is a list of '''[[Scheduled monument|Scheduled Monuments]] in the Borough of [[Chesterfield]]''' in the English county of [[Derbyshire]].

In the United Kingdom, a scheduled monument is a "nationally important" [[archaeological site]] or historic building that has been given protection against unauthorised change by being placed on a list (or "schedule") by the [[Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport]]; [[English Heritage]] takes the leading role in identifying such sites.<ref name="schedule"></ref> Scheduled monuments are defined in the [[Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979]] and the [[National Heritage Act 1983]]. They are also referred to as scheduled ancient monuments. There are about 20,000 Scheduled Monument entries on the list, which is maintained by English Heritage; more than one site can be included in a single entry.

While a scheduled monument can also be recognised as a [[listed building]], English Heritage considers listed building status as a better way of protecting buildings than scheduled monument status. If a monument is considered by English Heritage to "no longer merit scheduling" it can be descheduled.<ref></ref>

Derbyshire has nearly 500 Scheduled Monuments including many stone cairns, stone circles, barrow burial mounds, lead mining relics, ancient settlements, and over 20 bridges.<ref> Historic England|website=historicengland.org.uk|language=en|access-date=12 February 2020}}</ref>
