For this week we are back up north in the Peak District. It's been suitably wintry of late in these parts with not only snow but rainstorms and gales.

It was redesigned by the architect Sir George Gilbert Scott in the 19^th century and incorporates some of the original building. In the graveyard you will find the tombs of many of the past Dukes as well as Sir Joseph Paxton and Kathleen Kennedy. Paxton was the head gardener at nearby ducal house but also the designer of The Crystal Palace. Kathleen Kennedy was the sister of US President John. F. Kennedy.

Can you name the village or Peak District estate this church is in?
