Old Glossop
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Old Glossop is a Parish village and the original part of the town of Glossop in the High Peak area of Derbyshire, England, about 13 miles east of Manchester. The village is to the west of the Peak District national park, and so falls into Greater Manchester's sphere of economic influence.
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 1900's the village had eight pubs, but there are now only two remaining: The Bulls Head and The Queens Hotel.
