Belstone in fiction
Agatha Christie's 1931 novel The Sittaford Mystery would appear to use Belstone as the location of the fictional settlement of Sittaford. The story of The Ballad of the Belstone Fox (1970) by David Rook was based on the area, later made into a film The Belstone Fox in 1973. Michael Jecks made the village the setting for his 1999 novel Belladonna At Belstone.
