About Five Wells Farm

"The name, “Five-Wells,” has arisen from the circumstance that in the vicinity, five fields so abut upon a spring that each has a drinking-place or well supplied therefrom. The name is also applied to a farmhouse near."

From John Ward’s ‘Five-Wells Tumulus, Derbyshire

Five Wells is located in the White Peak (part of the Peak District National Park), at 1400 feet above sea level.

On the farm is the oldest and highest Neolithic Chambered Tombs in the British Isles.
