The village is a typical old Derbyshire village the site of which which has seen habitation from ancient times. Some, if not most, of the cottages are still part of the estate and the current Baronet, Richard, is happy to play the tour guide complete with a comprehensive commentary - we passed on this enlightening experience.
The wells were blessed, each in turn, while we wander about eating huge slices of Victoria sponge courtesy of the maidens of the WI. The church is well worth a visit - the Norman font and doorway are unusual. Typical Elizabethan funeral hatchments add interest.
After a cup of rosey we decided we'd had enough culture and asked one of the Baronet's look-a-likes the way out of the village. The drive back to Sheffield went through the most fantastic green-and-pleasant you could imagine.
