St Anns Well, pump room , George St, Buxton, High Peak, Derbyshire, England, UK, SK17 6AY


The Pump Room is well worth a visit alone. The newly-restored, stunning late Victorian building was erected to resolve the overcrowding of the town’s thermal baths and provide a place for locals and holidaymakers to ‘take the waters’, commune and relax. The building is dedicated to Arnemetia, the Romano-British goddess of the sacred grove, referencing Buxton’s history as one of Britain’s only two Roman bath towns; Aquae Arnemetiae.
