Brampton Picture Framing is a specialist framers located in Chesterfield, just 15 minutes journey from Dronfield.
Dronfield is a market town, but little is known about its early history. It is known to have been in existence before the 1086 Domesday Book and suffered after the Norman conquest when William the Conqueror sought to bring the North of England under control. Its name is thought to mean the open land where there are drones (male bees).
Despite its recent growth, Dronfield's centre has managed to keep its ancient character with a number of historic buildings still intact. These include the town's library (formerly a manor house), a school (now The Dronfield Henry Fanshawe School) which was established in 1579 through a request in the Will of Henry Fanshawe which was implemented by his nephew Thomas Fanshawe, and a 15th century building long used as a barn with a king post roof.
