More about this scene

Ivy-clad Lea Hurst at Holloway, near Matlock, is famous as the home of the Crimean War's 'Lady with the Lamp', Florence Nightingale. This 17th-century gabled house with mullioned windows was greatly enlarged by her father in 1825, and she returned home here after the war in 1856.
