Bakewell
Bakewell is a little market town and also civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire, England, known for a neighborhood confection, Bakewell pudding. It lies on the River Wye, concerning 13 miles (21 kilometres) south-west of Sheffield. In the 2011 census the civil parish of Bakewell had a population of 3,949. The community is close to the tourist attractions of Chatsworth House and Haddon Hall. Although there is evidence of earlier settlements in the area, Bakewell itself was probably established in Anglo Saxon times, when Bakewell remained in the Anglian kingdom of Mercia. The name Bakewell indicates a spring or stream of a man called Badeca (or Beadeca) as well as derives from this personal name plus the Old English wella. In 949 it was Badecanwelle as well as in the 11th century Domesday Book it was Badequelle. Bakewell Parish Church, a Grade I noted structure, was founded in 920 and has a 9th-century cross in the cemetery. The present church was constructed in the 12th-- 13th centuries yet was essentially rebuilt in the 1840s by William Flockton. By Norman times Bakewell had actually obtained some significance: the town as well as its church (having two clergymans) are pointed out in the Domesday Book and a motte and also bailey castle was constructed in the 12th century. In the early 14th-century, the vicar was terrorised by the Coterel gang, that evicted him and confiscated the church's cash at the instigation of the canons of Lichfield Cathedral. A market was established in 1254 as well as Bakewell created as a trading centre. The Grade I-listed five-arched bridge over the River Wye was created in the 13th century as well as is among the few enduring residues of that period. Another Grade I-listed bridge, Holme Bridge, was integrated in 1664 as well as goes across the Wye on the north-eastern outskirts of the town. A chalybeate spring was found and also a bathroom house constructed in 1697. This caused an 18th-century bid to establish Bakewell as a day spa town in the manner of Buxton. Building of Lumford Mill by Richard Arkwright in 1777 was complied with by the restoring of much of the town in the 19th century.
