Latest reviews | Events in Bakewell
Bakewell in Derbyshire, is a beautiful, small market town situated on the
River Wye in the Peak District National Park. The river is crossed by a 13th
century 5 arched bridge which is still open to traffic. The bridge had been
widened in the 19th century.
Bakewell was mentioned in the Domeday book as having a church and 2 priests
signifying its importance even then.
The famous Bakewell pudding was invented accidentally at the Rutland Arms
Hotel, when a cook misinterpreted instructions and poured egg mixture over
the jam instead of mixing it in the pastry and what should have been a tart
was now a pudding. Bakewell puddings can be bought at several shops in the
town centre.
The tourist information centre is housed in the Old Market Hall. The lower
part of this building had been open and the upper part a closed room. The
upper floor was removed in 1858 and the gaps in the lower part filled in. It
has been in constant use by the community as the town hall, wash house,
school, magistrates court and library over the years
Behind the Old Town Hall are the Almshouses of St John's Hospital also
dating from 1709.
Well Dressing and carnival events take place in the week up to the first
saturday in July which is carnival day.
The Bakewell Show takes place on the first wednesday and thursday of August
on land adjoining the Agricultural Centre. The first local show took place
in 1819. It is now a major agricultural and horticultural event with all
sorts of animals being shown along with show jumping and exhibitions of
local crafts and produce.
