Description
Chimney Stacks in the Peak District in Great Britain.
Set in an enviable location on the banks of the Wye, with the river meandering gently through the center, this beautiful old market town is in the heart of the Peak District, surrounded by stunning countryside views.
Famous for its Puddings,Annual events and for receiving royal charter as a market town in 1330, markets are still held every Monday in the town center and there is a thriving livestock market.
Bakewell grew up around a cluster of thermal springs and wells that attracted Iron Age settlers and, in Anglo-Saxon times, gave the place its name. The town has a long and fascinating history.
Less than 200 years ago, Bakewell presented a completely different picture with narrow streets and timber framed properties, many of which had thatched roofs. The modern layout of the town only came about in the 19th century.
Visitors flock to shop and explore the towns nooks and crannies, to admire the fine stone Derbyshire buildings, or just to relax in by the clear, sparkling waters of the River Wye.
