Great place for a drink mid route

In the Memorial gardens, on the corner of Cokayne Avenue and Park Road, you will find the impressive sandstone gateway to the park, comprising a classical arch with pillars and fluted columns, welcoming visitors to the ornate formal gardens planted in memory of Ashbourne’s war casualties. Pass the bandstand site and in the other corner of the gardens is a statue of the Salvation Army co-founder, Catherine Booth, who was born in Ashbourne. The Henmore Brook flows just beyond the playground, giving lots of opportunities to spot wildlife on Fishpond Meadow.

Mayfield Yarns is a synthetic yarn manufacturer based in Mayfield, Staffordshire, with over 80 years of experience in the industry. The company is located in the Mayfield Mill, which has a long history of textile production dating back to 1795. In 1795 A cotton mill was built on an industrial site but in 1806 a fire destroyed much of the mill. It was rebuilt with a cast iron framework and brick vaulted ceilings. Brothers Joseph and George Simpson rebuilt and enlarged the mill in 1866. Mr C.H. Cowlishaw, a solicitor from Uttoxeter, purchased the mill in 1932 but sold it again two years later to William Tatton & Co. of Leek, and manufacturing switched to silk. In 1980 Mayfield Yarns began manufacturing and supplying synthetic yarns in the mill.

Described by the writer George Eliot as “the finest mere parish church in the Kingdom”, St Oswald’s Church has a slender spire 212 feet high and was once a candidate to be the cathedral for the Derby Diocese.

One of the grandest churches in Derbyshire, with a slender spire of 212 feet. Referred to in the Doomsday book, the present church building dates from the mid 1200's and contains fine stained glass and monuments. Evidence of a Norman Crypt was found during renovation works in the early 20th Century but the existing church dates from the early 1200s and the 1241 dedicated plaque is believed to be the oldest in Britain. The oldest parts of the present building are the chancel (eastern end of the church containing the altar) and the transepts (the arms of the church), which were built in the first half of the 13th Century. The main part of the nave was added in the mid-thirteen century and was widened in the late 13th Century by the addition of south aisle when a tower was also added; a north aisle was never built, possibly because of the impact of the Black Death. The last major construction was the spire, which was built in the early in the C14th.

This charming little village is located nearby to Ashbourne in Derbyshire. It's nestled in the picturesque countryside of the Peak District and is characterised by historic stone cottages and a rural atmosphere. I'd recommend a stop at The Cock Inn, a beautiful traditional pub serving up food and real ales.

A massive old Oak tree next to the path between Osmaston and Ashbourne.
