Snelston
Snelston is a village and civil parish three miles south-west of Ashbourne in Derbyshire. It includes Anacrehill. A tributary of the River Dove flows through its centre. The building in the foreground of the photo above is Lower Lodge which stands at the entrance of Snelston Hall. Beyond the lodge is St Peter's church. Snelston Hall was built in 1827 and was demolished in 1951. The local squire, John Harrison had the village remodelled and a new school built in 1847. The village buildings were designed by the architect Lewis Nockalls Cottingham. This is now a model village. The parish church of St Peter was substantially rebuilt (except for the tower) in 1825.〔Pevsner, Nikolaus. 1986. ''The Buildings of England:Derbyshire''. pp 319-320. Harmondsworth, Middx. Penguin. ISBN 0-14-071008-6〕 It is one of the few churches to have had dances regularly held on the roof.〔Bowyer, L.J. Rev. 1953. ''The Ancient Parish of Norbury''. Ashbourne. J.B. Henstock.
