Derbyshire: Buxton and Surrounding Area
Buxton is the highest town in England and a major centre within the Peak District. In Roman times Buxton was famous for it thermal spring. Mary, Queen of Scots, visited Buxton on several occasions to use the spring while being kept a prisoner before her execution in 1587. There are no longer any thermal springs in use in Buxton but the water is still famous as 'Buxton Bottled Spring Water' (which comes from 5,000 feet below).
