Bakewell
Bakewell is a small market town as well as civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales area of Derbyshire, England, understood for a regional 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 traveler destinations of Chatsworth House as well as Haddon Hall. Although there is proof of earlier settlements in the area, Bakewell itself was possibly established in Anglo Saxon times, when Bakewell remained in the Anglian kingdom of Mercia. The name Bakewell means a springtime or stream of a man named Badeca (or Beadeca) and also originates 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 Church Church, a Grade I noted structure, was founded in 920 and has a 9th-century cross in the cemetery. The here and now church was created in the 12th-- 13th centuries yet was essentially rebuilt in the 1840s by William Flockton. By Norman times Bakewell had obtained some importance: the community and also its church (having 2 clergymans) are mentioned in the Domesday Book and also a motte and bailey castle was integrated in the 12th century. In the very early 14th-century, the vicar was terrorised by the Coterel gang, that evicted him and took the church's cash at the instigation of the canons of Lichfield Cathedral. A market was developed in 1254 and Bakewell developed as a trading centre. The Grade I-listed five-arched bridge over the River Wye was built in the 13th century as well as is one of minority surviving remnants of that period. An additional Grade I-listed bridge, Holme Bridge, was constructed in 1664 and also crosses the Wye on the north-eastern borders of the community. A chalybeate springtime was discovered as well as a bathroom house constructed in 1697. This led to an 18th-century proposal to develop Bakewell as a day spa community like Buxton. Construction of Lumford Mill by Richard Arkwright in 1777 was complied with by the restoring of much of the town in the 19th century.
