Snow in Derbyshire sees people share stunning scenes from across the county
From a snow covered church in Derby, to snow tipped flowers in a Derbyshire nature reserve, there are plenty of photos to make you marvel at the true beauty of nature.
Weather in Derby has eased following a heavy snowfall overnight on Saturday, December 2, 2023.
Here are a few snowy scenes from across Derbyshire that will have you diving for that hot cup of cocoa as you enjoy the beauty of a winter wonderland on your doorstep, but from the comfort of your couch.
A persistent cold spell means weather warnings are still in place for some parts of the country until Tuesday December 5, however there is no further snowfall expected this week in Derbyshire.
The snow may not have lasted for long, however this didn’t stop people from getting ‘snap happy’ and sharing their photos on social media.
The image taken by Aaron is the perfect picture postcard, showing Morley Hayes in all its stunning glory.
The entire field is an icy white and covered in a blanket of snow, whilst trees up ahead appear to be even more majestic with their branches tipped in white.
Peter Asprey who posted under handle @dolphinpix took a photo of the Duke of Rutland's former estate office in Ilkeston.
The entrance was adorned with Christmas lights and snow covered trees.
The red brick building with a contrasting concrete tile roof has an interesting history - it was designed by William Dymock Pratt, built in 1898, and it is now in residential use.
Steve's collection of photos captured the perfect winter wonderland.
It evokes Christmas of bygone days, thanks to the old red telephone box standing guard on one side of the road.
Other images from his selection featured Lady Bower Reservoir and The Peaks.
Otherwise plain fields were given a Christmas makeover and were flecked with icy white crystals.
Dr Janet Lees posting under @Bambigoesforth took a fabulous selection of photos that even showed some sheep grazing nearby.
Her photos were taken during a walk in Longdendale, a picturesque valley in the Peak District.
Some people seem to be fans of the morning after a good snowfall and with good reason.
@EightTheGreen posted photos of a hedgerow that looked like it was filled with gorgeous crystals.
They wrote in the caption: 'Bring back those clear and crisp mornings please.'
This was taken at Middleton by Wirksworth, and like all other images shared on social, it makes us want to explore Derbyshire even more!
