Derbyshire England Landscape
Derbyshire is located in the eastern Midlands of England, and history abounds this glorious and fascinating place. In fact, just the the other day, I was discussing the Neolithic period on my blog Ancient Digger. These nomadic tribes were known to hunt the hilly tundra using their bare hands and hand crafted tools. They set up limestone caves on the border of Nottinghamshire, some which date back to 12000BC. There have also been several burial mounds found, most centrally located in Derbyshire.
