Tideswell
Tideswell is a village and civil parish in the Peak District of Derbyshire, in England. It lies east of Buxton on the B6049, in a wide valley on a limestone plateau, at an altitude of above sea level, and is within the District of Derbyshire Dales. The population was 1,820 in 2001, making it the second-largest settlement within the National Park, after Bakewell.
==Name==
There is some debate as to how the village got its name. The English Place Name Society accept it as being named after a Saxon chieftain named Tidi, others that the name comes from a "tiding well" situated in the north of the village.
Tideswell is known locally as ''Tidza'' or ''Tidsa''.〔(Tideswell page at Cressbrook.co.uk )〕 In addition, local residents are known as ''Sawyeds'', owing to a traditional story about a farmer who freed his prize cow from a gate in which it had become entangled, by sawing its head off.〔(Tideswell page at VisitPeakDistrict.com )〕 Today the story is re-enacted raucously and colourfully every Wakes week by a local mummers group called the Tidza Guisers.
