Product details

Having explored the sites of Birchinlee and Slippery Stones, I hoped the submerged ruins of Derwent would reveal themselves soon, as they sometimes do during dry spells. Derwent had made a brief appearance in the long, dry summer of , and once in each of the following decades, most recently in But what remained of Derwent beneath Ladybower? Luck was on my side. In , a hot, dry summer descended on the area. The waters of the reservoir fell, and fell again, until the remaining stones of Derwent emerged from the mud-caked banks.

By the middle of September, the ruins of Derwent Church were exposed. Nearby, cottage doorways, hearths and lower walls revealed themselves. The reservoir level continued to drop and I could walk out to the ruins of the stately home of Derwent Hall, stepping gingerly across the muddy reservoir floor in the autumn sunlight. The path beyond the church that led to the school was also exposed, along with the little bridge that crossed the stream to the schoolhouse and its gateposts.

There was an eeriness and melancholy in the piles of blackened stones.

Old photos of Derwent Hall revealed a grand panelled drawing room and ornate ballroom. Was there anyone left, I wondered, who remembered the lost villages of the Upper Derwent Valley? Someone who could breathe life back into the damp, crumbling ruins? A friend pointed me in the direction of year-old Mabel Bamford, who lives in the village of Bamford south of the reservoirs.

Mabel welcomed me into her home with an energetic step and sparkling eyes. There was no electricity, just a paraffin lamp in the living room.

Candles were used everywhere else. The loo was an earthen closet a long way from the house.

It had made the move easier. We had to walk one-and-a-half miles to Derwent. Sometimes the shooters and beaters in grouse season gave us a lift. But the rides we liked best were offered by the pipeline workers. I nodded.

I had noticed the large pipes that span Ladybower at Fairholmes, where the visitor centre sits at the head of Ladybower. They were easily big enough to hold a child. Bamford told me more stories: of the policeman who came to her house to berate her for stealing apples; and of the excitement in Ashopton when the petrol station owners generated electricity with a windmill-like contraption.

I left Bamford, feeling privileged to have heard her first-hand stories of the drowned villages. One year on, the ruins of Derwent village have returned to the murky depths of Ladybower Reservoir. Or with climate change, will its resurrection become a regular occurrence?
