Roston Derbyshire Map

About Roston

Roston, a quiet hamlet in the Derbyshire Dales, exhales the very essence of the East Midlands. It lies 7.4 km south-west of Ashbourne (from Ashbourne: bearing 220°T, OS grid SK 132 410), and is situated south-east of Ellastone village. The fields surrounding Roston, often softened by a pearly Derbyshire light, unfold with a gentle, almost hesitant grace, hinting at the ancient farming practices that have shaped this land for centuries. A subtle hush pervades the air, broken only by the distant bleating of sheep or the rustle of wind through mature oak trees that stand like silent sentinels. There is a sense of continuity here, a quiet dignity in the simple stone dwellings that seem to have grown organically from the earth, their roofs weathered by countless seasons. The nearby River Dove, a ribbon of silver glimpsed through the trees, contributes its own quiet murmur to the peaceful soundscape of Roston.
