After a very nice breakfast at the hotel we went for a day out in Buxton.
It was a mixed day weatherwise, started misty, then rained, turned sunny for a couple of hours, then absolutely hissed it down for a bit & ended up misty again.
I got a few nice pics as we wandered around...


We started by going to the Tourist Information for a map, & found the shop in the Pavilion Gardens which are very nice

1. Cascade


2. General view


3. General view
 

4. Thomas's cousin must have been very naughty - they've put him in prison!!


5. General view


6. Fountain & Conservatory


7. General view


8. As a rule it's not a good idea to point your camera towards the sun, but sometimes it works


9. The Bandstand & the Octogon


10. Mrs HC being very patient while I take yet ANOTHER photo


11. The Opera House


12. The Dome - part of the University of Derby


13. There's a fair few references to water in Buxton :)


14. The tiles in some of the doorways are lovely


15. Don't tell the kids, but he doesn't live at the North Pole & he's a twin!!!


16. The Crescent


17. The Crescent
 

18. The Town Hall


Very soon after this photo was taken the rain started, so we headed for a cafe for a brew & a nice piece of cake before returning to the hotel for a swim & steamroom.

Thanks for looking

I remember driving past the crescent many many moons ago - brought back a memory of two

Nice one. I like that into-the-sun shot :)
