Another of the little villages that seem to abound in this area. The large 14th. century church is known as 'the Cathedral of the Peaks'
Tideswell was once important for its' markets and was also a centre for a variety of local industries including quarrying, lead mining, cotton and velvet mills. Today it continues to be a focal point for surrounding communities with a small industrial estate, craftwork, furniture and piano manufacture providing employment.
This is the War Memorial, in the centre of the village.
