Buxton is the home of Buxton Spring Water (http://www.buxtonwater.co.uk/) which is sold round the world, but if you are in town make sure you get some free water from the well that is in the centre by the Royal Crescent.
To the southwest of the town centre is the show cave of Poole's Cavern (http://www.poolescavern.co.uk/). A pleasant and free walk through woodland from here leads to Solomon's Temple, a folly on a limestone hill with elevated views over Buxton and the surrounding area. Another interesting and little-known local curiosity lies in a small valley between Solomon's Temple and the village of Harpur Hill, where water issuing through lime-rich waste rock has created an intriguing area of white calcite deposits.
