Riassunto

Excerpt from The Peak Guide, Containing the Topographical, Statistical, and General History of Buxton, Chatsworth, Edensor, Castlteon, Bakewell, Haddon, Matlock, and Cromford: With an Introduction, Giving a Succinct Account of the Trade and Manufactures of the County; An Alphabetical List of Noblemen and Gentlemen's Seats, and Several Road Sketches

Derbyshire, one of the central counties of England, is so diversified in geographical aspect, that it may be said to possess both high-lands and low-lands. The former are distinguished by their romantic scenery, their rocks and caverns, and for their mineral wealth: the latter differ little either in their appearance or in their produce from the fruitful districts of other British counties. In each of these, the labours of industry are eminently known, and it would be difficult to say whether the moun tains or the plains of the county are the wealthiest, or which owes the most either to the bounties of nature or the energies of art.
