After careful consideration and in the light of the need to prevent the spread of the COVID-19, the Buxton Crescent Heritage Trust has decided to close the Pump Room to the public until further notice. All our events are postponed or cancelled.
The High Peak Tourist Information Service will be delivered temporarily by the staff via email. Email enquiries will be answered as quickly as possible. For email address see below.
These measures are under constant review, as we respond to the developing situation and any Government advice. Your continued support and interest during these challenging times is greatly appreciated.
As soon as we can we look forward to welcoming you back to the Pump Room. Please do get in touch if you have any questions.
