Well Dressings

In 2017, there were seven:

• 1. Hands Well at the north end of the village, near the Post Office
• 2. Children’s Well on Rakes Lane, nearly opposite Hands Well. A small additional dressing located nearby.
• 3. Hall Well opposite Tissington Hall
• 4. Yew Tree Well at the south end of the village, near the start of The Avenue leading to Tissington Gates
• 5. Town Well at the eastern end of the Village Green, near the duck pond
• 6. Coffin Well in the garden of a house on Chapel Lane (follow the signs via a footpath from the Town Well)

How to get there

Tissington is located to the east of the A515 Ashbourne to Buxton road, north of Fenny Bentley.

CAR: follow the signs from the main road. During the Well Dressings, a one way system operates in the village, and there is no parking on the roads (except for disabled). The signs direct you into a large field which acts as a convenient car park (there is a small charge) from where you can walk around the village in comfort.
