Hotels around Buxton - accommodation
in the Peak District
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. Today visitors can fill their own water bottles
from St. Ann's Well, a little street fountain in front
of the Crescent. The development of modern Buxton began
with the fashion of "taking the waters" in the 18thC.
The 5th Duke of Devonshire planned a northern version of
Bath, the splendid Crescent being the centre of his grand
design and housing 3 hotels and several baths. With the decline
of spas however, the buildings fell into disrepair and are only
recently being restored. The Victorians set out the gardens and
the delightful cast- iron and glass buildings including the concert
hall, conservatory, Pavillion and Opera House. Buxton's
history is explained in the award winning Museum and Art Gallery
near the market place.
