Vandring

These six gravestones belong to the Hancock family, who all perished in the Great Plague of 1665-66. The Black Death came to Eyam via a package of materials from London. Due to the villagers’ brave decision to quarantine themselves, the infection did not spread. From this eerie and historic spot, you get fantastic views.

Here on a beautiful hillside just east of Eyam is the peaceful resting spot of seven members of the Hancock family. There are six gravestones and a tomb here. These poor souls were unlucky enough to succumb to the plaque within a week of each other back in 1666. There are beautiful panoramic views of the Peak District countryside around Eyam to be had from here.

Vandring

The Hancock family of Riley House Farm, Eyam, suffered one of the most devastating losses during the Great Plague of 1665–1666. In just 8 days, 7 of 8 family members died — all buried by the sole survivor, Elizabeth Hancock, in the Cucklett Delf mass grave.
