Alport is a small, quiet and attractive Derbyshire and Peak District village, situated just off the main road. Named after the portway road which ran through the settlement, the Saxon inhabitants of Alport, added the prefix`al` which itself means old. The stone houses with pretty gardens date back to the 17th and 18th centuries.
The river Lathkill cascades down through the village in a series of weirs and meets the river Bradford coming from Youlgrave. Read more at Alport village
