Excellent walking country with ancient woods and tumbling streams
A wonderful place to discover spectacular views of the Peak District, ancient woods, parkland and heather moorland.
The spectacular White Edge Moor overlooks the Derwent Valley and forms part of the long gritstone edge stretching from Stanage towards Birchens Edge south of Chatsworth House.
If you have time, discover the old quarry workings at Bole Hill. Then visit Riley Graves, a circular wall that encompasses the resting place of the Hancock family, who perished in the plague years of the 17th century.
