About Buxton - show infohide info

Buxton is a famous spa town in the county of Derbyshire, and is the gateway to the Peak District National Park. Buxton therefore, is in an area surrounded by mountains. The name of Buxton town could be traced back to around 1100. Bucstones or Buckestones is recorded on a foundation charter for land given by William Peveril to found Lenton Abbey in Nottinghamshire. Prior to this, Buxton on the River Wye has a long history as a spa town. Its geothermal spring rises at a constant temperature of 28C. Buxton water can be collected from its source at St Ann’s Well near the town centre. Every summer, the well is decorated, as is the tradition of well dressing. The site upon which Buxton lies was originally developed by the Romans around 78 AD, when it was known as Aquae Arnemetiae (or the spa of the goddess of the grove). Buxton began to grow in status towards the end of the 18th century as the Victorians began to discover the healing properties of the water. A famous visitor includes Mary Queen of Scots who suffered from rheumatism. Buxton was built on the boundary of the Carboniferous limestone and the Derbyshire shale and gritstone. As such, much of original settlement was constructed from limestone. From this however, only the 1625 parish church of St. Anne remains. Present buildings are made from locally quarried sandstone built mostly around the late 18th century. Since 1780, The Dukes of Devonshire have been closely involved with the development of Buxton, and were instrumental in the construction of the town in the style of Bath. At 307 m above sea level, Buxton is the highest market town in England. The town's economy is still supported by the spring, as the water which is bottled and marketed by the Buxton Mineral Water Company. The other major economic activities are tourism and the quarrying of Limestone
