About the neighbourhood
Winster Village was once a thriving lead mining village that boasted 20 pubs and 2000 residents. Today it is a popular tourist destination which still retains its village community. The age old tradition of the Winster Wakes, complete with Morris dancing, still continue today.The old part of the village contains some fine historical buildings such as the Market House and the poorhouse. The hillside to the north has many of the old lead mining cottages for which the village is renowned. The roads of East Bank and West Bank are bi-sected by footpaths, known locally as gennels, that allow walkers to view beautiful cottage gardens. Winster opens these gardens to the public when it hosts the Secret Gardens of Winster weekend.The pubs at Winster include the Miners Standard and the Bowling G...

Getting around
The best way to get around the village is on foot and the Croft is centrally located making it easy to access the shop and pubs. The pathways also provide some stunning views of the beautiful gardens in Winster. In and around the peak district, a car is the best way to get around. However, Winster is served by a regular bus service to Matlock, which has a railway station that connects to the Midlands.
