    About this property

    A hidden beauty spot in the South Pennines with more than 160 hectares (400 acres) of unspoilt woodland. As well as being the home of the northern hairy wood ant, there are tumbling streams, glorious waterfalls and stacks of millstone grit, all crisscrossed by more than eighteen miles of footpaths. At its heart is Gibson Mill, a family-oriented visitor centre with hand-operated interactive displays, dressing up, dancing and exhibitions. With no link to the national grid, the mill is unique in the UK and is the National Trust's flagship sustainable building.
