This time we are off to the lovely County of Derbyshire. and will visit the ancient town of Wirksworth, not as popular as some of the towns like Matlock, Buxton, Bakewell etc. but nevertheless it is one of the oldest towns in the Peak District. It is steeped in history with many interesting buildings, picturesque cobbled streets and Craftsmen’s Yards to investigate. It also has up to 10 Well Dressings at this time of the year. This is an age old tradition mostly only found in Derbyshire. They are made by local people from natural materials such as petals, leaves, stones wood etc. They are always beautiful, spectacular and often topical. There will be time for a coffee, good choice of cafes and browse round (an optional guided tour of the town is on offer) Then we will be off to Sir Richard Arkwright’s Masson Mill, built in l783. It is the finest and best preserved example of an Arkwright Cotton Mill. There is a working Textile Museum, where we will have a guided tour, a demonstration of the working looms and hear about life here as a Millworker. A shopping village if you feel like having a look and a nice restaurant serving coffee/meals etc. with a good choice of menu.
WHEN – Wednesday 3lst May 2017. Departing 8.30am Return 6pm. Price:£15 inc.guided tour(s) Seats will be on sale at our table on Tuesday 7th March 2017.
