SITE LOCATION 2.1.1. Stanage House Farm is an isolated farmstead located 1.8km north of the village of Eyam and 1.2km west of the hamlet of Bretton (Figure 1). The farm is surrounded by fields, formed on the edge of an area of unenclosed moorland, Eyam Moor, and accessed along an unpaved lane leading onto The Croft off Sir William Hill Road. 2.1.2. The farm lies on the northern slope of Sir William Hill, from which the land drops steadily away to the north before dropping more sharply to form the valley of Bretton Brook. A gritstone outcrop, known as Stanage, forms a ridge to the east of the site. 2.1.3. The arrangement of the site (Figure 2) is focused on a single foldyard, defined by a long linear combination barn to its north (Building 4), and a boundary wall to its south and west which is abutted by a modern lean-to structure (Building 5). The farmhouse (Building 1) is situated to the south-east of the yard and faces south. A small yard is enclosed to the west of the house, onto which fronts a former kennel (Building 3). To the south of this yard is an outhouse (Building 2). 2.2. GEOLOGY 2.2.1. The bedrock geology of the site is mudstone and siltstone of the Hebden Formation, lying between areas of sandstone belonging to the Shale Grit and Kinderscout Grit (BGS, 2021). The latter has been historically quarried at Sir William Hill for building stone to the east of the site, with Kinderscout Grit buildings recorded at Grindleford, Leam Hall and Highlow (Historic England, 2016 & 2017). 2.3. DESIGNATIONS 2.3.1. The site is not covered by any heritage designations. 3 The JESSOP Consultancy Sheffield + Lichfield + Oxford STANAGE HOUSE FARM, Sir William Hill Road, Bretton, Derbyshire Written Scheme of Investigation - Report TJC2021.7 Figure 2: Site Layout showing recording strategy 4 The JESSOP Consultancy Sheffield + Lichfield + Oxford STANAGE HOUSE FARM, Sir William Hill Road, Bretton, Derbyshire Written Scheme of Investigation - Report TJC2021.7 3 HISTORIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL BASELINE 3.1.

Chapel is a small friendly town with a long history, in a beautiful location, almost surrounded by the Peak District National Park. It's about 800 feet above sea level, and its neighbour, Dove Holes, is about 1000 feet above, so while the weather can be sometimes wild, on good days its situation is magnificent.

    A LOOK AT THE EFFECTS ON FAMILY LIFE IN DERBYSHIRE’S HIGH PEAK DURING THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918 JONATHAN D’HOOGHE 1 2 This work is dedicated to all of the families and individuals whose lives were inexorably changed by the events at home and abroad during the Great War 1914-1918. The war memorial at Chapel en le Frith The idea for this study came from the organising committee of the Chapel en le Frith Male Voice Choir. A choir formed in 1918 by returning servicemen. The newspaper archival research has been carried out by members of the choir during 2017 and 2018, notably, Steve Thomas, Ian Laing, Peter Bowes, Peter Baxter, Bob Marsden, Steve Brown and Richard Foulkes and the research has been edited and written up by Jonathan D’Hooghe to provide a snapshot of life in the High Peak between 1914-1918. It has not been possible to trace the copyright owner of all of the photographs used. Therefore, please contact the Chapel en le Frith Male Voice Choir should there be any issues. Our grateful thanks are given for their use in this not for profit work. 3 CHAPEL EN LE FRITH MALE VOICE CHOIR FOUNDED 1918 AND THE EFFECT OF THE GREAT WAR ON THE LOCAL POPULACE On the 4th August 1914, Great Britain declared war on Germany after Germany refused to withdraw its army from neutral Belgium.

  • White's 1857 Directory of Derbyshire
    CASTLETON PARISH. 527 tithe was commuted in 1842, the impropriate for £100, and the vicarial for £56; of the tithe of lead ore, two- thirds are paid to the Bishop, and one-third to the vicar. The church is a large stone cemented edifice, with a low tower and peal of eight bells of superior tone; about 25 years ago, it was thoroughly repaired at a cost of £500, when a beautiful arch, separating the nave and chancel, was discovered and brought to view;—in the chancel is a handsome painting of the “Adoration of the Magi,” by Vandyke, which was given by Capt. Hamilton. In 1853, a handsome stained glass window was placed in the chancel, by subscription to the memory of the late Rev. C. C. Bates, who was vicar of this parish for 35 years. There is also a library in one of the vesteries containing upwards of 2,000 volumes. The Rev. F. Farran, who was vicar here 38 years, and died 3rd Oct., 1817, bequeathed a number of books for the use of the parishioners, to which have been added a considerable number of volumes by Capt. Hamilton and Miss H. Farran; they consist of historical, theological, and biographical works, and here is a copy of Cranmer’s great Bible, printed in 1539, and a copy of the Breeches Bible, so called from its translation of Gen. iii. chap. 7. v., printed in 1609, and with it are bound the Psalms in metre, by Sternhold and Hopkins. In the church is a monument to Charles Potts, Esq., who died in 1725; one to Micah Hall, who died in 1804, and one to John Mawe, Esq., of London, mineralogist, he died 26th Oct., 1829, in his 63rd year, and was interred in the parish church of St Mary-le- Strand.
