Church History This Cemetery or Burial Ground was founded in 1875, and we understand it is still open. Stanton in Peak, as recorded in Kelly's Directory of 1912, is a village and parish, 2 miles south-west from Rowsley station on the Manchester line of the Midland railway, 4 miles south-east from Bakewell, and 8 miles from Matlock. [The Midland railway had not yet become part of the London, Midland and Scottish railway] Also mentioned are Stanton Hall, the seat of the Thornhill family - "a fine mansion, with several handsome terraces, and grounds laid out with much taste ... the park contains about 130 acres, adorned with fine timber and stocked with deer ... the carriage drive is 1¾ miles in length", Stanton Woodhouse - "an ancient mansion in the Elizabethan Style, situated on an elevation and commanding a considerable view"; and Stanton Hill Side - "is part of Birchover Street". Hamlets Pilhough, Stanton Lees and Congreave were also said to belong to the township. The Cemetery is on the opposite side of Main Road to Holy Trinity Church, and separated from it by other properties. It does not appear to have its own chapel. It is described in various Kelly's Directories as "1½ acres" (1895), and "about 1 acre" (1912 and 1932). Denomination Now or formerly a Cemetery. In most cases this will be a record of its original consecration. Maps This Cemetery is located at OS grid reference SK2421364335. You can see this on various mapping systems.

Search Tips:

You can specify either a Place, or OS Grid Reference to search for. When you specify a Place, only entries for that place will be returned, with Places of Worship listed in alphabetical order. If you specify a Grid Reference, Places of Worship in the immediate vicinity will be listed, in order of distance from the Grid Reference supplied. The default is to list 10, but you can specify How Many you want to see, up to a maximum of 100.

You can further refine your search by supplying other search terms.

• You can specify entries with ('Yes') or without ('No') photographs.
• You can specify a church or chapel's Dedication, to restrict entries to those containing the term you supply as a dedication. So for instance, 'John' would return 'St John', 'St Mary and St John', 'St John the Divine' &c.
• You can specify a Street address, and likewise 'George' will return George Place, St George's Street, George and Dragon, &c.
• You can restrict the search to classes of Denomination. The exact denomination is always shown in the results, although the search is for broad types. Thus you can search for 'Methodist', but not 'Wesleyan Methodist' or 'Primitive Methodist'. 'Multi-denominational' includes Ecumenical Partnerships, and 'Miscellaneous' means anything not covered by other broad classes.
