Local Interest - original monochrome 1940's bus route destination name ASHOPTON, framed.

100cm x 28cm 


Notes: Derwent was a village 'drowned' in 1944 when the Ladybower Reservoir in Derbyshire, England was created. The village of Ashopton, Derwent Woodlands Church, and Derwent Hall were also 'drowned' in the construction of the reservoir. Unlike the remains of Derwent village, which have become visible when water levels have dropped due to drought, Ashopton will never re-emerge from the waters of Ladybower as silt has already covered the remains of its buildings.
