Every band includes the share of every body that sets council tax here, such as the police and, where they exist, the county council, the fire authority and parish councils, with parish precepts as an average. A home in a parish with its own precept pays a different amount, and discounts such as the single person discount are not taken off.

Band D bill breakdown in Derbyshire Dales

These are the published 2026/27 area averages. Parish charges are averaged into the council line. They are already included in the total and must not be added again.

Published area average, including all precepts£2,444.70

Adult social care is included in council charges. Police and fire may be funded within another line, including a combined-authority or GLA charge. A zero separate line does not mean the service is absent. The named bodies come from MHCLG's billing-area mapping for this year.

The council's own Band D, excluding local precepts, is £251.37. This is a separate measure, not an additional charge.

Do not add these amounts to the area average above: that already includes average local precepts. Grouped parishes and charter trustees can have overlapping charging areas. A postcode alone cannot establish every charge on a property.

Long-term Band D history

The national live table holds 34 published area figures for Derbyshire Dales, from 1993/94 to 2026/27. This series is generally rounded to whole pounds, so it can differ from the penny figures in the recent band tables.

£602 to £2,445(+306.1% in cash terms)

Not adjusted for inflation. A change in services or council structure can affect comparisons. Missing years stay missing; we do not join predecessor councils ourselves. MHCLG carries forward predecessor-area history only where its published series does so, including some district-to-unitary changes with unchanged boundaries.
