The cottages were knocked down in the 1960's by Dove Water board during the creation of Staunton Harold Reservoir. Remains of the walls and bricks can be seen, especially during the winter. For more information please look on our website - http://www.lrwt.org.uk/nature-reserves/dimminsdale/ we also have a leaflet I could e-mail to you which has even more info.<br />Best wishes,<br />Leicestershire & Rutland Wildlife TrustAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-574800003825292845.post-55458597876664910282015-03-12T21:31:13.214+00:002015-03-12T21:31:13.214+00:00I've never been to Calke, it's been featur...I've never been to Calke, it's been featured quite often on TV and I'll love to see the Auricula theatre, as they are one of the plants I collect. The snowdrops are amazing, what a find.
