Today started with rain but didn't stop some very special four-legged visitors this morning, as these beautiful horses arrived early for cake! They certainly made a wonderful sight and brought plenty of smiles. ❤️

Then, as if that wasn’t enough excitement, two gorgeous classics arrived at the station a stunning Ford Lotus Cortina MkII and a Jowett Javelin. Both certainly caught the eye and were admired for their amazing vintage style.

Beautiful horses, stunning classic cars and, of course, coffee & cake — what more could you ask for at the perfect venue? 😍

The Worshipful Company is on a 3 day tour of Derbyshire and the station was their first stop. After some refreshments, they received a very interesting talk about the revolution from the Pentrich Revolution Group before having a ceremony outside. They then walked to nearby All Saints Church to view the Revolution Quilt and laying a wreath. Quite a number of the revolutionaries were Framework Knitters.
