Cotton's Fishing House on the banks of the River Dove. The structure was built by the poet Charles Cotton at Beresford Hall, near the Derbyshire Peak District. His father, Charles Cotton the Elder, was a friend of Ben Jonson, John Selden and Izaak Walton. His friendship with Izaak Walton began about 1655, and Cotton contributed a section 'Instructions how to angle for a trout or grayling in a clear stream', to Walton's The Compleat Angler; the additions consisted of twelve chapters on fishing in clear water, which he understood largely but not exclusively to be fly fishing.
