Winster is a village in the English Derbyshire Dales about 5 miles (8 km) from Matlock and 6 miles (10 km) from Bakewell at an altitude of approximately 820 feet (250 m). It was formerly a centre for the lead mining industry. The village lies within the Peak District National Park and The Peak District Boundary Walk runs through the village.[1] Winster has many listed buildings, including the Market House open daily as a National Trust information point. The 2021 census shows a population of 551, down from 633 in 2001 and 600 in 2011.[2] The village has a primary school, two churches, two pubs, a village hall (The Burton Institute) and a village shop (owned by the community) which includes a post office. Winster was mentioned in the Domesday Book in 1086 when it was owned by Henry de Ferrers.[3]

A workhouse at Bank Top (grid reference SK239602) was opened in 1744. It had a rule that forbade any relief outside of the workhouse. By the 1770s it could house 40 inmates.[4]

Winster Market House was the National Trust's first property in the Peak District and was acquired in 1906.
