There is some debate as to how the village got its name. Some say it takes its name from a Saxon cheiftain named Tidi. Others say that the name comes from a "tiding well" situated in the north of the village.
In the Middle Ages, it was a market town known for lead mining, but it is now best-known for its fourteenth century parish church. The Church of St John the Baptist is known as the "Cathedral of the Peak".
