Buxton is a spa town in Derbyshire, in the East Midlands region of England. It has the highest elevation – about 300 m above sea level – of any market town in England. Close to the county boundary with Cheshire to the west and Staffordshire to the south, Buxton is described as “the gateway to the Peak District National Park”.

Buxton landmarks include Poole’s Cavern, an extensive limestone cavern open to the public, and St Ann’s Well, fed by the geothermal spring bottled and sold internationally by Buxton Mineral Water Company.

This postcard of summer 1977 goes to Delmenhorst in Germany.
