(Hurling anb 4¥lotcring. Cycling and Motoring i From London ii From Birmingham iv Through the District vi It is hardly necessary to remind tourists that the Peak is a specially hilly country ; further, that most of the roads cross the hills from valley to valley rather than follow the course of any particular one. The great exception to this rule is the main road from Derby to Matlock, Bakewell, Castleton, and Ashopton, which hugs the Derwent all the way to Ashopton ; its tributaries, the Noe, etc., from Mytham Bridge to Castleton, and the Ashop, another tributary, from Ashopton to the Snake Inn. This route is best taken the reverse way—tackling the long, steep ascent from Glossop [p. 149) at once. The road from Rowsley to Buxton keeps company with the Wye as far as that coyest and most erratic of streams will permit—which is not saying much. On all sides except the south the inner part of the district is hemmed in by hills from 1,000 to 1,800 feet above the sea. The following are the chief roads of access :— Ft. Manchester to Buxton (1000 ft.), summit-level, Macclesfield „ „ „ Leek „ „ Glossop „ Ashopton (600 ft.) Sheffield „ „ „ „ Hathersage (500 ft.) „ „ Baslow (400) by Froggatt Edge „ „ direct, summit-level, Chesterfield " Roii'sley (300 ft.) „ „ Barley Bale (280 ft.) „ Matlock (250 ft.) The general quality of the Derbyshire main roads is very good, except that in very dry weather or after any considerable rainfall those that are metalled with limestone are apt to be very dusty or very sticky—powder or mortar. This is particularly the case on the high ground between Buxton, Ashbourne, Bakewell, Baslow, and Hope, which is a limestone country throughout. We append a few notes on the approaches for motorists and cyclists from 1 iondon, Birmingham, etc. Our Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Cheshire friends are too familiar with the runs to need any information beyond that given in the body of the book and on the little map opposite.

Another pleasant variation from Leicester is by one of the routes through Charnwood Forest. Those who start from London (Mansion House) by the old north route will probably do well to take train to Finchley (7 m.) or High Barnet (9), both on the G.N. line. This route joins the Edgware route (Variation a) at St. Albans. As far as surface and hills go, there is little to be said about any of the routes till Derby is reached. There is not very much of special interest on any of these routes after St. Albans is passed, the roads being good and fairly level throughout, and the scenery of the ordinary midland counties type. St. Albans is within comfortable reach of London by rail (19J m. from St. Pancras; 24 from Euston. 3rd el., Is. Ihd.; cycle, (W.). Its importance dates from the Roman period, when, under the name of Yerulaniiiun, it was the most im- portant town in South Britain. It was on the great road northward through the midland counties—Watling Street—and derives its name from St. Alban, a Boman soldier, the first Christian martyr in Britain, executed here A.D. 304. Only a fragmentary wall and a fosse remain to indicate the site of the old town, which lile off to the west. In the reign of Claudius, Boadieea surprised it and put j- of its inhabitants to the sword. Milton calls it Jugera Cassibelauni ivelaunus"). To the tourist nowadays its one object of interest is its glorious Abbey, which was made a cathedral in 1877- It is one of the" ' and finest buildings of its period—the longest (540 ft.) of our cathedrals except Winchester, which beats it by 20 feet.

Eecently a new E.E. west facade and several large windows have been given by Lord Grimthorpe at a cost of more Peak.—Pink Inset. — —;; CYCLING AND MOTORING. iii than £100,000. The interior has been carefully restored. It boasts the longest Gothic nave in the world, with E.E. and Dec. details. The stained glass (N. aisle) is the work of the 15th century ; the painted ceiling of the choir of the 14th, of the chancel of the 15th. Note also the mediaeval screen behind the altar, restored ; the chapels and chantries ; the tomb of Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester the shrine of St. Alban, the Lady Chapel, and the very fine brass of Abbot of De la Mare. The only remains of the 4'onveiitual JCni Itlings is the Perp. Gate, which stands W. of the church, and is now a school. St. >Ii<-lia«'l"s C'lmreli, § mile W. of the Abbey on our road to Dunstable, and within the walls of Verulam, contains an alabaster monument, by Rysbrack. to Sir Francis Bacon; « Qui. postquam omnia naturalis sapiential ct civilis arcana ''. evolvisset ( cvolverat), Naturae decreturn explevit." The highest point on our whole route (554 ft.) is \\ miles short of Dunstable (once Dunstaple), " a British settlement prior to the Roman invasion, and situated at the intersection of Watling Street and the Icknield Way. It was overrun by the Danes, and rebuilt by Henry I., who erected for himself a mansion and founded the Priory Church, a fine Norman building, recently restored. In it the divorce between Henry VIII. and Catherine of Arragon was pronounced in 1533 by Cranmer. Among other illustrious visitors were King John, Louis the Dauphin with the rebel barons in 1217, Henry III., Edward III., Henry IV., Elizabeth, and Charles I., who put up at the Red Lion on his way to the fateful field of Naseby. The town is mainly occupied in straw-plaiting. At Hockcliffe (326 ft.), where the Whitt Horse dates from 1566 and has many details of great interest, it is best, as before stated, to leave the main Holyhead road and proceed by Woburn Park to Newport Pagnell. Woburn Abbey (Duke of Bedford) lies a mile to the right of the road. It has a fine collection of pictures (shown on Fridays, 10 to 4, by order obtained at the Park Farm Office). Beyond Woburn there is little of interest to call for a halt till one reaches the busy and at the same time ancient town of Northampton, 1^ miles short of which is one of the three remaining Eleanor's Crosses, erected here and at every other resting-place of his wife's body on its way to interment at Westminster by Edward I.

  • Castleton Parish Statement (Draft)
    Castleton Parish Statement (draft) Introduction Castleton is a vibrant village in the heart of the magnificent Peak District National Park. It has a rich blend of history in the centre of one of the most popular locations for walkers, whether they are casual walkers or experienced fell trekkers. There is a range of pubs, cafes, and other eating places to suit everyone's tastes during and at the end of an active day. Geography Castleton village is situated at the head of the Hope Valley. It straddles the white peak (limestone to the south) and the dark peak (millstone grit to the north). It is right at the heart of some of the most attractive scenery in the Peak District National Park (PDNP). Mam Tor and Lose Hill look down on the village and the iconic Winnats Pass which is on one of two roads in/out of the village. Winnats Pass provides access to the west – Buxton, Chapel-en-le- Frith, Manchester and Manchester Airport. The other road in/out of Castleton is down the Hope Valley to Hope village, Hathersage, Sheffield and Derby. Castleton Parish Statement (draft) History Looking down on Castleton is Peveril Castle which dates from the 11th Century and was built to protect the local lead mining and hunting. Lead mining was carried out by the Romans. A small settlement (Pechesers) was recorded at Peak Cavern in 1086 (The Domesday Book) and the planned village was probably laid out in the 12th century. Villagers There are between 500 and 600 permanent residents, there are many elderly residents and only a few families with children.

PHILLIMORE, M.A., B.C.L., AND Ll. Ll. SIMPSON. VOL. VIII. yJ HonOon: Issued to the Subscribers by Phillimore & Co., Ltd., 124, Chancery Lane. — PREFACE This volume of Marriage Registers, the eighth of the Derbyshire series, contains the Registers of nine parishes, besides an odd Register for Ilkeston parish, omitted from the last volume. 1379096 It has not been thought needful to print the entries verbatim. They are reduced to a common form, and the following con- tractions, as before, have been freely used : w. = widower or widow. p. = of the parish of. co. = in the county of. dioc.= in the diocese of. lie. = marriage licence. It should be remembered that previous to 1752 the year was calculated as beginning on the 25th March, instead of the I St of January, so that a Marriage taking place on say 20th February, 1625, would be on that date in 1626 according to our reckoning ; but as the civil and ecclesiastical year were both used, this is sometimes expressed by 20th February, i62f. In all cases where the marriage is stated to have taken place by Licence, that fact is recorded, as the searcher thereby knows that further information as to age, parentage, and voca- tion of the parties is probably recoverable from the Allegations in the Archdeaconry or other ofifice from which the Licence was issued.

For the moorland lover based on Man­ chester, the only part of the Pennine worth serious consideration begins at a point 6 miles SSW of Skipton on the crest of the Colne-Keighley road, or, as easier of access, at Colne itself, and after a crow's flight of 37 miles roughly SSE ends at the foot of the steep slopes of Kinder Scout a mile N of Edale. We can also include the moors which towards the end of that range extend E and SE to nurse the infant Derwent as far as Ladybower on the main road from Glossop to Sheffield. For about the first 28 miles of that Colne to Edale flight the moors are of the conventional type. Their surface consists mainly of coarse grass with bil­ berry and heather in various states of roughness, culminating in the robust tussocks known as Scotchmen's heads, or (more politely) Turks' heads, which when spaced apart at a critical distance slightly less than a boot's width, thereby tending to twist the boot when inserted between them, constitute the worst going in the Kingdom apart from the rock-and-heather mixture of the Rhinogs of North Wales.
