According to "Cary's British traveller", the route from Derby to Mansfield goes ... Smalley, Kidsley Park, Tag Hill, Heanor ...
There is also a newspaper report in 1882 about a fire in the Baptist Chapel, Tag Hill, Heanor.

Tag Hill is not labelled on this 1913 map, however the Baptist Chapel is marked. So somewhere in this location? It is between Kidsley Park and Heanor.

Again, whilst Heanor Wood is not labelled on this map, there are some references to "Loscoe (near Heanor Wood)" in 1842. Loscoe Grange shows here:

Added - Interesting autobiography including references to Heanor Wood http://www.rootschat.com/links/01sr0/  and a local family history society page which mentions Heanor Wood (Tag Hill) https://www.heanorhistory.org.uk/v2forgottennames.html
