About

Buxton South & East encompasses residential neighbourhoods on the southern and eastern fringes of the spa town. The area includes the steep slopes of Corbar Hill, leading up to the prominent Corbar Cross monument. Housing here is largely composed of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, along with more modern developments. The University of Derby's Buxton campus is a significant local institution, centred around the historic Devonshire Dome, which dominates the skyline from many points.

The landscape is defined by its position at the edge of the Peak District, with open countryside and farmland beginning abruptly beyond the last streets. Local life revolves around several primary schools, smaller local shops, and community centres. A network of public footpaths provides direct access onto the moors, including routes towards the Goyt Valley. The area serves as a quiet residential gateway to the national park.
