 The spa town of Buxton was founded
in 79 AD by the Romans, who discovered a spring from which 1500
gallons of pure water gushed every hour at a constant 28'C. The
spring became so famous that Mary Queen of Scots was allowed
by her captors to come here for treatment of her rheumatism.

 He
also built a stable block which was built around a circular exercise
area. When the buildings were converted into the Royal Devonshire
Hospital, this circular area was covered over with a large dome
spanning 154'. At the time it was the largest unsupported dome
in the world. There was a time when you could sit in the surreal
quiet of this immense space, enjoying a coffee and listening
to the accoustics echoing around the vast dome. It has now become
part of Derby University. |
