Dove Holes is a village in the High Peak district of Derbyshire, England, situated along the A6 road approximately three miles north of Buxton and three miles south of Chapel-en-le-Frith. The area has a rich history, with evidence of prehistoric activity. Notably, the Bull Ring, a Neolithic henge located in the village, suggests ancient ceremonial use. Historically, Dove Holes developed as a community due to quarrying of the pale, porous limestone rock, contributing to the White Peak area’s name. The village is also home to a church, a Methodist chapel, and a community center, reflecting its active community life.
