Repton, Ancient village in South Derbyshire, England

The settlement spreads along the south bank of River Trent, featuring a collection of Georgian houses and cottages along its principal street.

Archaeological excavations revealed evidence of settlements from Mesolithic periods and confirmed the village served as the capital of Mercia during Anglo-Saxon times.

St Wystan's Church contains an eighth-century Anglo-Saxon crypt with spiral decorated columns and vaulted roof, representing early English architectural elements.

The Boot pub produces its own beer in an onsite microbrewery and provides accommodation for visitors exploring the Derbyshire region.

The medieval cross at the northern road junction stands on octagonal steps, marking the center point of this former Mercian royal residence.
