It states, the water of Shuttlewood spa, is that of the same water as that of Harrogate but weaker; it has been used as a bath and bears marks of antiquity. The bath was not covered or even enclosed with a wall, the situation is rather convenient. However it must have assumed importance years ago because Shuttlewood became known as Shuttlewood spa. Until quite recently, it was used by people for miles around, who suffered from defective eyesight. == Education == ''Brockley Primary School'' is a [[primary school]] that is run by Derbyshire County Council, It has a Foundation Unit for the younger ~~students~~pupils and then it provides education for pupils aged between 5-11 before they proceed towards secondary education at [[Netherthorpe School]], [[Heritage High School, Clowne\|Heritage High School]] or [[~~The~~the Bolsover School]].
