A ''H.B.M'' from Ye' Olde' village of 'Tissington'

Tissington village is about as perfect a 'Peak District' village as can be imagined. The prettiest of stone cottages are clustered around a gracious stately home, in a village complete with a duck pond, six ancient wells, a beautiful church and a stream from one of the wells cuts through the village..

At the heart of the village stands the magnificent Tissington Hall, a Jacobean house dating from 1609. It has remained in the hands of the same family, the Fitzherberts, since it was first built and is still a family home today.

I know quite a lot of the Peak District, Dave but never visited Tissington (I know it's one of the villages famed for its well-dressing).
A fine capture!

Lovely composition and a charming and beautiful location David. Love the light on the water and the old dry stone wall. It looks perfectly peaceful here and just as if you have stepped back in time.

HBM and have a good new week
