Today we will be visiting the lovely town of Buxton, a town whose history is shaped by water 
. Specifically we are visiting the Buxton Crescent Heritage Experience which reveals the story of a special spa town and the renowned water set in the recent multi million pound restoration of the Grade 1 Georgian Crescent. For hundreds of years visitors have travelled here to drink and bathe in the mineral waters. We will have a guided tour, take a virtual reality hot air balloon flight over Buxton, and rub shoulders with the Regency high society at a glamorous ball before having our ailments cured by the l8thC Apothecary. Follow the rain water journey from the Peak District Hills and find out why it emerges warm from the springs beneath the Crescent. Even a souvenir bottle to take home with you. We will also visit the Pump Room. Plenty of coffee shops etc in the area and we are very close to the lovely Pavilion Gardens. Then we are off to Hayfield, a lovely village, where we can visit their wonderful Well Dressings. Widely regarded as the best
together with Tissington. This is a custom only to be found in Derbyshire and some of the Staffordshire Border. Pictures are made by local people from flower petals, sticks, stones etc. which are then pressed into damp clay. The origins are lost in the mists of time but are thought to stem from the plague and the need to protect the water.
WHEN? Monday lst July 2024. Dep.8.30am Ret.6pm. Price: £27 inc.the Buxton Crescent Heritage Experience. Seats will be on sale at our table on Tuesday 14th May 2024.
