Revolution House, Old Whittington
The Revolution House in Old Whittington takes its name from the Revolution of 1688. Three hundred years ago, this cottage was an alehouse, the 'Cock and Pynot' ('Pynot' is a dialect word for magpie), and it was here, as history and tradition relate, that three local noblemen- the Earl of Devonshire (from nearby Chatsworth), the Earl of Danby and Mr. John D'Arcy - met to begin planning their part in events which led to the overthrow of King James II in favour of William and Mary of Orange.

Revolution House, Old Whittington
Small stone cottage, now a museum https://www.chesterfield.gov.uk/explore-chesterfield/museums/revolution-house.aspx. It was the meeting place of a group planning to extend an invitation to William of Orange in 1688, so that the Whig party brought about the fall of James II and the succession of the Protestant William III. This change in the monarchy came to be known as the Glorious Revolution.
The house was then a hostelry, and the tiny museum today features period furnishings and exhibitions of local interest.
