Baslow Derbyshire Map

About Baslow

Baslow, a Derbyshire village, breathes the air of the Peak District's northern reaches. It lies 5.2 km north-east of Bakewell (from Bakewell: bearing 42°T, OS grid SK 252 723), and is situated north-east of Pilsley village. The River Derwent, a ribbon of cool, clear water, cuts through Baslow, its banks often softened by the gentle sway of riverside trees, their leaves catching the milky light that filters through the often-clouded English sky. Beyond the village, the vast, heather-clad expanse of moorland rises, a wilder country where the wind seems to whisper ancient secrets. The stone cottages of Baslow, their walls weathered by countless seasons, cluster around a modest village green, a quiet heart for a place whose gaze is habitually turned towards the surrounding hills.
