Four years ago today, crowds lined the streets as the Olympic Torch came to Derbyshire on its way to London.
The flame travelled across the county, carried by a number of local torchbearers as excitement for the 2012 Olympics built.
As well as coming to Chesterfield and Buxton, the Olympic Torch even took a trip on the cable cars at Matlock Bath’s Heights of Abraham.
