Staveley

Staveley lies to the south of the great Staveley Iron Works and has its fair share of large 20th-century housing estates. However, this is not altogether a modern village and has some fine earlier structures, including the Parish Church of St John the Baptist, dating originally from the 13th century. In the north aisle is a rare example of a medieval Easter Sepulchre. The name of Frecheville is one that crops up from time to time in this part of Derbyshire, and the church has a selection of tombs and monuments to the family. As well as the tomb-chest of Peter Frecheville, dating from around 1480, there is also an early 16th-century monument to Piers Frecheville. In the Frecheville Chapel is a memorial to Christina Frecheville, who died in childbirth in 1653. Another fine building in the village is Staveley Hall, built in 1604 and now the District Council Offices.
