The Old Bridge

Bakewell Town, Derbyshire, Peak District, England The Derbyshire town of Bakewell started as a Saxon settlement. It was called Beadeca’s wella, which meant Beadeca’s springs. Baedeca must have been a Saxon who settled by the warm springs which rise at Bakewell where limestone meets shale. Bakewell was mentioned in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, a kind of national diary in 924. At that time King Edward the Elder ordered that a fort should be built at Bakewell.

Padlocks On love Lock Bridge, Bakewell, England I was unaware there was a lovelock bridge at Bakewell in the Peak Districk, UK, England. I knew and have seen the one in Paris and although this one is not on that scale, it is impressive nonetheless. I took this close up of the locks as I like to fill the frame especially for jigsaw puzzles and the like.
