The Ancient Market Well
Visitors who come to Buxton for the day, quite often miss one of the oldest, and most fascinating parts of the town, Higher Buxton and the Market Place. Apart from its varied, and exciting architecture, dating from the 16th century to the present day, Higher Buxton offers some really fine shopping opportunities.

The photograph shown here was taken prior to the removal and resiting of the market cross, which is now directly outside the Town Hall.

Visit the bustling market days on Tuesdays and Saturdays, browse around the many shops that have a range of stock, simply not found in the main part of town. There is a host of friendly Pubs, Restaurants, Cafes and takeaways for your refreshment.

Two moderately sized supermarkets occupy a central position, offering quality food etc, and at very good value for money.

There are shops with the latest in fashions, music, videos and DVDs, others to buy all that's new in sound and vision technology. Setting up home? here, you will find quality furniture and furnishings to suite all tastes and styles. Why, here, it's even possible to buy a home, and sell one, too. There are handmade crafts to decorate the home, all brought in specially from around the world. Looking for a rare book? Some flowers? Leather goods? They are all here, and much more besides.


Thinking about a holiday, you'll find a great choice of exciting faraway places. And for those with a head for thrills and adventure, or white knuckle sports, all the equipment you could possibly require, is located at Higher Buxton.

This lovely area of Buxton is only minutes away from the Pavilion Gardens, the Opera House and other major attractions the town has to offer. There is ample parking for the car, and buses call at the market place from neighbouring villages and towns...even from adjacent counties.

Welcome, and please enjoy the sights, sounds and shopping in one of the friendliest areas of Buxton.
