Summary "Repton and its Neighbourhood: A Descriptive Guide of the Archæology, &c., of the District" by F. C. Hipkins is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This guide explores the rich heritage and archaeological significance of Repton, a village in Derbyshire, England. Through a collection of historical references and discussions, the book seeks to provide readers with a detailed understanding of noteworthy events and places associated with the village, from its ancient monastic beginnings to its more modern historical context. At the start of the narrative, the author explains the impetus behind this revised edition of his previous work. He emphasizes the importance of key locales such as the Church, Priory, and Repton School, while detailing significant historical events, such as the conversion of the kingdom of Mercia and the destruction by the Danes. The opening section sets the tone for an exploration of Repton's evolution over centuries, shedding light on archaeological findings, architectural changes, and the impact of time on these historical sites, ultimately aiming to engage those interested in local history and heritage.
