Chelmorton

A typical White Peak upland village, though one which retains the pattern of an ancient field system marked out by drystone walls. High on Chelmorton Low (see Foolow) is the highest megalithic chambered tomb in England; down on the village street stands a unique telephone box; and a golden locust looks down over the historic Church Inn from the top of the church spire. A shady brook, once the village water supply, is for some strange reason known as Illy Willy Water.
