Old Glossop
Old Glossop is a parish village and the original part of the town of Glossop in the High Peak area of Derbyshire, England, about 15 miles east of Manchester and 23 miles west of Sheffield. The village is on the very edge of the Peak District national park.
Although High Peak Borough Council has now called a large area of Glossop "Old Glossop" for political ward reasons, the original parish boundaries mean the area has a population of about 1,100.
At the beginning of the 1900s the village had eight pubs, but there are now only three: The Bulls Head, The Wheatsheaf and The Queens Arms Hotel. In addition, a microbrewery, Howard Town Brewery, is located in Old Glossop.
In 2013, Old Glossop was used for filming in the BBC drama series The Village, starring John Simm and Maxine Peake. The Parish Church of All Saints and the former Duke of Norfolk school building appeared in the series.
