Hotels around Leek - accommodation
in the Peak District
Leek Staffordshire became important in the 18C &
19C as a silk town, famous for its shawls, buttons, ribbons, twist
and sewing silks, and for the dye known as "Raven Black",
a fashionable colour after being worn by Queen Victoria
in mourning for Prince Albert. William Morris, founder
of the Arts & Crafts movement, lived and worked in Leek
from 1875 - 78, and left a significant mark on the art and architecture
of the town. A market is held weekly on the ancient cobbles of
the large market square, complemented by the thriving indoor Butter
market. The great silk mills of the last century are still here,
now mostly antique shops, and between the mills you' ll find rows
of small specialist shops.
