Roughly 360 million years ago the District both White and Dark was immersed by a shimmering translucent, warm, shallow sea packed with microscopic hard shelled creatures. The Lower Carboniferous began 355 million years ago and ended 325 million years ago. Much of Britain was covered by this warm tropical sea. The signature Derbyshire limestone synonymous with the area was formed during this period by the trillions of sea creatures, plants and shells. The undulating Derbyshire landscape was set in stone during this period and later moulded, scalped, sculpted and carved by land collapse, glaciers and receding seas. So next time you're in Bakewell, Matlock, Buxon or Ashbourne remember, there was a sea above your head here once!
