Bakewell has several 17th and 18th century stone houses including the Market and Town Halls, Catliffe and Bath Houses, Holme Hall. Bakewell has a cruciform church, typical of this county, built between the 12th - 14th century. The Church has fine effigies in the Vernon chapel and a stump of a Saxon Cross in the churchyard.
