==History==
St Anne's Church has an [[Anglo-Saxons|Anglo-Saxon]] coffin lid in the porch entrance, but the oldest part of the current building, the north [[aisle]], dates from about 1200. The tower was constructed in the 13th century but the rest of the church is newer and was the subject of an extensive restoration in the 19th century. A [[sundial]] lies in the church grounds, atop the shaft, base and steps of a cross.  This may have acted as a [[market cross]] in the 17th century.  A second cross lies in the graveyard, moved from Bubnell by Doctor Wrench, who erected the nearby Wellington Monument and is buried in the churchyard.  This cross may historically have been known as the "Butter Cross".<ref name="Neville T.

Just behind the church is Baslow Bridge, a [[Grade I listed building]] and [[scheduled monument]].<ref>{{National Heritage List for England|num=1088195|desc=Baslow Bridge|grade=I}}</ref><ref>{{NHLE |num=1007057 |desc=Baslow Bridge (scheduled monument) |fewer-links=yes |access-date=26 October 2023}}</ref>  At the north west end of the bridge is a stone gabled watch hut, manned daily to protect the village from bandits (not a toll booth as is frequently stated). Built in 1608, this is the oldest bridge across the Derwent never to have been destroyed by floods.{{Citation needed|date=March 2017}}
