Top 10 Shopping in Buxton, England

February 5, 2022 Leonarda Pillsbury

Buxton is a spa town in Derbyshire, in the East Midlands region of England. It has the highest elevation – about 1,000 feet (300 m) above sea level – of any market town in England. Close to the county boundary with Cheshire to the west and Staffordshire to the south, Buxton is described as "the gateway to the Peak District National Park". A municipal borough until 1974, Buxton was then merged with other localities lying primarily to the north, including Glossop, to form the local government district and borough of High Peak within the county of Derbyshire. Despite being in the East Midlands, economically Buxton is within the sphere of influence of Greater Manchester. The population of the town was 22,115 at the 2011 Census.

Reviewed By sheldonhousemonyash - Monyash, United Kingdom

We first found this Gallery over 2 years ago when looking for picture framing service, and absolutely loved the paintings. In fact, we came away with 3 very large maps which Carole framed for us, and 2 paintings. We have been back several times since and have bought several more paintings either for our home or as gifts. The Gallery has changed and improved over time and Carole has also branched out into clothes and gifts. Although a compact space, it is definitely a place to browse and immerse yourself, looking for treats. However, it's the paintings of the local Peak District landscapes which we like best - the expansiveness and huge skies over moorlands and crags are so expressive and moving. Well worth a visit and a purchase - sizes and prices vary but all are extremely good value.

Scrivener's Books and Bookbinding

Reviewed By Bibberty

Floors of every kind of book all very well named. Very interesting really old antique books. Local new books for sale. You can sit in a comfy room surrounded by children's books and have a drink with your read. Interesting decor with an old fireplace full of memorabilia. Be careful with the steep stairs.

The Green Man Gallery

January 2021. The gallery is closed temporarily due to Tier 4 COVID restrictions. We will re-open when these restrictions are lifted. The Green Man is a vibrant, independent gallery and arts centre, managed and run by artists. A popular creative hub for Buxton, the gallery hosts ever-changing exhibitions of contemporary art and craft by its Resident Artists and guests from across the region. Paintings, photography, printmaking, mixed media, mosaics, textiles, jewellery and ceramics plus hundreds of prints, unique gifts and cards at affordable prices. Before the pandemic, The Green Man also hosted an exciting programme of workshops, classes, live performances and other arts events and offered spaces for hire. It hopes to resume this programme once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.
