This is The Abbey at Darley Abbey, barely big enough to fit 40 people in at a push*, it nonetheless serves brilliant Sunday lunchtime food. Roasts and hotpots and burgers and vegetarian sausage and mash, which is what I had. Highly recommended!
It does, however, serve very questionable-looking soft drinks...
...which are probably made in someone's front room with a Sodastream.

I particularly like the pictures of the big church (cathedral I think) and the window thingy. You could probably get maths out of the church pictures, window, ceiling etc because there is loads of symmetry... that would be good for a CofE or Catholic school.
