Eyam is a beautiful small village set in the centre of the Peak District, in Derbyshire, England. The village is famous for having gone into quarantine to avoid spreading the Bubonic Plague in 1665-6

Eyam is one of the best-preserved villages in the vicinity and many of the houses have plaques giving details of their history and the part their inhabitants played in the Plague saga.

Above the village lies Eyam Moor which is a fine area for walking, with good views across the Derwent valley and many Bronze Age remains and monuments.
