The village of Tideswell dates back earlier than Roman times, and at Domesday, it was part of the large parish of Hope, but in 1207 it was granted to Thomas Armiger and in 1251, a market charter. Tideswell became a thriving market town selling local produce, including wool and lead.
Tideswell markets are no more, but its magnificent church reflects the town’s prosperity at the time, dedicated to St John the Baptist and completed in the 14th century, it is often referred to as the ‘Cathedral of the Peak’ and is seen for miles around. The Old Vicarage was the vicarage to the ‘Cathedral of the Peak’ up until 1993 when Tricia and Andrew moved in.
