Additional Notes
Supervisor comments
In Summer 2011 a traditional temporary Derbyshire well dressing, made from flowers and other vegetation pressed into clay within a wooden frame, was erected at the western end of the village green at Pilsley near Chatsworth House. It featured a representation of this window and was displayed for a few days and subsequently dismantled.
