Bed and breakfast in Wirksworth |
|
 Bed and breakfast in Wirksworth. The pretty market
town of Wirksworth existed well before the Norman Conquest.
At one time it was the headquarters of the lead
- mining industry in the South Peak, but now relies on limestone
quarrying for its staple industry. It is here that the lead -
miners have their Barmote Court to deal with mining disputes,
and is the oldest industrial court in the country. It still meets
twice a year in the Moot Hall in Chapel Lane. The Heritage Centre
in Crown Yard is an ideal place to begin to explore Wirksworth
and wander round the Town Hall. Narrow alleys climb the hillside
away from the market place to groups of cottages clustered around
tiny yards. Also see Wirksworth.
If you are in the right town but cannot find
the accommodation you want on this page, you might consider self catering accommodation in Wirksworth. |
