Baslow and Bubnell is a civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire in England. According to the 2001 census it had a population of 1,185. The parish is in the Peak District National Park and covers Baslow and Bubnell. Baslow and Bubnell may also be known as 'Bakewell' due to its chapelry with the Bakewell parish. John Marius described Baslow and Bubnell between 1870–72 as: "The village stands on the river Derwent, in the northern vicinity of Chatsworth, 3½ miles NE of Bakewell r. station. It has a post office‡ under Chesterfield, and a good inn; and it forms a pleasant centre to tourists for visiting Chatsworth. Baslow and Bubnell,〔Plea Rolls of the Court of Common Pleas; National Archives; CP 40/647, for 1422, http://aalt.law.uh.edu/AALT1/H6/CP40no647/aCP40no647fronts/IMG_0412.htm entry no. 5, mentions defendants from "Bobenhill", as well as Baslowe.〕 often referred to as simply "Baslow", offer the perfect location for walking and hiking, including a large convenient car park from which to start. The idyllic setting so close to Chatsworth House means the villages are lively all year round, and are a perfect base to explore the Peak District National Park.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://baslowbubnell-pc.org/ )〕 == Population and background == According to the 2011 census its population now stands at 1,178.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Neighbourhood Statistics )〕 Baslow is divided into three distinct areas, Over End, Nether End and Bridge End, where the river Derwent is spanned by a charming, 17th-century, three-arched bridge, beside which is a little stone shelter built for the toll collector. Nether End, with its 'Goose Green', a triangular paddock with trees and thatched cottages overlooking a brook, is popular with visitors. There is a number of little shops here. St Anne's is both a beautiful and unusual church – one clock tower has Roman numerals and is dated 1759 and the other has 'Victoria 1897' on its face to mark Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. Inside the church by the door, in a glass case, is a dog whip, which in the 17th and 18th centuries was used by the official 'dog whipper' to keep stray dogs in order during the service. The whip has a thong three feet long, which is still in excellent condition and is bound round the handle with leather. Some historians also claim that it was used to maintain order among worshippers and to wake up those who snored during the service!〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.letsgo-baslow.co.uk/history-c16.html )〕 In the late 19th century a Hydropathic Establishment was built for people to come and 'take the cure', in the belief that Baslow Waters were a benefit to those suffering from joint and muscle pain. It was demolished in the 1920s. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.peakdistrictonline.co.uk/baslow-history-c483.html )〕 The inhabitants are partly employed in the cotton manufacture, and there are some quarries of ordinary building-stone. The living is a perpetual curacy; net income, £115; patron, the Duke of Devonshire; impropriator, the Duke of Rutland: the tithes (those on wool and lamb excepted) were commuted for land in1822. The chapel, which is chiefly in the later English style, has a tower and low spire at the western end of the north aisle. There are two places of worship for Wesleyans; and about half a mile from the village is Stanton-Ford school, endowed with about £15 per annum. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=.http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=50784&strquery=baslow#s3html )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baslow and Bubnell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
