  • THE FOUR COUNTY TOPS- SOLO COMPLETION. (The Fairholmes

    THE FOUR COUNTY TOPS- SOLO COMPLETION. (The Fairholmes

    THE FOUR COUNTY TOPS- SOLO COMPLETION. (The Fairholmes Variation!) Colin Lago Invitation to sponsorship St. Lukes Hospice has recently cared for a dear friend of mine and whilst out on the following adventure, I thought that I would seek (retrospective) sponsorship to raise money for this excellent centre of care. So, whilst appreciating that this approach is highly unconventional, i.e. that people seek sponsorship for challenges they are going to be taking, not ones they have taken! And that this is not, in any way, an organised event- again unusual!) Any contributions would be gratefully accepted. All money collected will go directly to St Luke’s Hospice in Sheffield. Thank you. Introduction. This route was first suggested in an article by Tony Wimbush in ‘The Fellrunner’, (Feb. 2006) and was originally conceived as starting and finishing at Hayfield. The route represents ‘ a continuous circuit of over 40 miles linking the four county tops of Derbyshire, (Kinder Scout, 636m) South Yorkshire, (High Stones, 548 m) West Yorkshire, (Black Hill, 583 m) and Greater Manchester, (Black Chew Head, 542 m.)’ The only other criteria that Wimbush suggested was to cross the A57 Sheffield – Manchester road in two particular places, (on the outward and return journeys) :one over the Snake summit and the other crossing near the Snake Inn. My own account! Having been considering this route for a little while now- ever since two friends in the running club managed a winter traverse, I decided to have a go on May 9th, but for convenience and transport purposes chose to start and finish at Fairholmes car park on Lady Bower reservoir.

For the moorland lover based on Man­ chester, the only part of the Pennine worth serious consideration begins at a point 6 miles SSW of Skipton on the crest of the Colne-Keighley road, or, as easier of access, at Colne itself, and after a crow's flight of 37 miles roughly SSE ends at the foot of the steep slopes of Kinder Scout a mile N of Edale. We can also include the moors which towards the end of that range extend E and SE to nurse the infant Derwent as far as Ladybower on the main road from Glossop to Sheffield. For about the first 28 miles of that Colne to Edale flight the moors are of the conventional type. Their surface consists mainly of coarse grass with bil­ berry and heather in various states of roughness, culminating in the robust tussocks known as Scotchmen's heads, or (more politely) Turks' heads, which when spaced apart at a critical distance slightly less than a boot's width, thereby tending to twist the boot when inserted between them, constitute the worst going in the Kingdom apart from the rock-and-heather mixture of the Rhinogs of North Wales.

From the magnificent Ladybower Dam and those famous plugholes, the route takes you along wooded trails beside the water, surrounded by sweeping hills. It then crosses the water to return on the other side, with wide open countryside views across to the vast bulk of the Kinder plateau. You return to your start point via the pretty slopes below Crook Hill, for a wonderful perspective on Ladybower Reservoir and the iconic viaduct. This is a walk of 8.1 miles.

E-mail: [email protected] 12 13 ABSTRACT 14 The exploitation of river systems for power and navigation has commonly been achieved through 15 the installation of a variety of in-channel obstacles of which weirs in Britain are amongst the most 16 common. In the UK, the historic value of many of these features is recognised by planning 17 designations and protection more commonly associated with historic buildings and other major 18 monuments. Their construction, particularly in the north and west of Britain, has often been 19 associated with industries such as textiles, chemicals, and mining, which have polluted waterways 20 with heavy metals and other contaminants. The construction of weirs altered local channel gradients 21 resulting in sedimentation upstream with the potential as well for elevated levels of contamination 22 in sediments deposited there. For centuries these weirs have remained largely undisturbed, but as a 23 result of the growth in hydropower and the drive to improve water quality under the European 24 Union’s Water Framework Directive, these structures are under increasing pressure to be modified 25 or removed altogether.
