Summer Holiday - Day 3 (Chesterfield - Bakewell - Stoney Middleton)

I arrived in Manchester and tranferred to trains to get to Chesterfield. After lunch, we headed to Bakewell for the afternoon. I sampled a Bakewell pudding for the first time (or at least the first time in my memory!). We also visited an embroidery shop...dangerous to the wallet! ;)


On our way back to Chesterfield we stopped by some well-dressings in Stoney Middleton. These are made from wooden boards covered in clay and then flower petals are imbedded in the clay to create pictures.






That night we visited a local pub called the Cock and Magpie for dinner.
