OLD SCHOOL 

The original village school was built in 1672 and had 25 pupils. The site is now occupied by the
imposing Victorian structure of the Youlgreave Co-operative Society building (1887) with its three-arched palisaded front, now a youth hostel. This stands opposite the Fountain at the village centre.
