My dad was born in Hackney, London in 1922. Named Arthur Lawrence Gibbs, son of William Arthur Gibbs. My grandad came to Australia in 1925 with my grandma and with 3 or 4 children pioneed a farm in Northcliffe in Western Australia. I myself have been to England but only once in my life(I was born in 1953). My son and my daughter have both visited the fair country and spent a lot of time there and have been to the old Hackney. I have not been there, and if anyone can help me with any memories or stories I would be forever grateful. Raymond John Gibbs. Your's in trust, take care.

Matlock is a very pretty place, I remember stopping off at Matlock on our way to Nottingham when I was 8 years old. I remember so well how pretty the place was, the dales, hill sides the scenery, just beautiful.

My Great Grandfather Geo. B. Barton established a hydrotherapy business in Matlock Bank in the late 1800s. I believe the first was Jackson House, then he built Dalefield House(later Lilybank) His daughter, my Grandmother, emigrated to New Zealand. I am interedsted in any photos of the above, information etc. I believe he is buried in a local cemetery. If anyone has any information please contact me at barber@world-net.co.nz Thank you

This hamlet on the Chesterfield Road out of Darley Dale is known as Two Dales; the name probably comes from the twin valleys of Hall Dale and Sydnope Dale, which run on either side of the settlement.
The mock timbered gables of Red House at Darley Dale are now home to a horse and coaching museum, which runs coach-and-fours through the grounds of nearby Chatsworth House for visitors during the summer months.
This distant view was taken from the north of the linear village of Darley Dale, which spreads along the A6 north of Matlock on the road to Bakewell. Riber Castle can be seen on the distant horizon to the left.
