    Advisory Visit River Manifold, Staffordshire 25Th March, 2019

    Advisory Visit River Manifold, Staffordshire 25th March, 2019 1.0 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust (WTT) to the River Manifold near Longnor, Staffordshire, on 25th March, 2018. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with members of Derbyshire County Angling Club (DCAC). This section of the River Manifold has been the subject of a previous WTT Advisory Visit (2007) and practical habitat improvement works by WTT and Trent Rivers Trust around 2008 – 2010. The habitat works were the subject of a scientific study of invertebrate populations (Everall et al., 2012). In 2011, a study was carried out by Loughborough University on behalf of Natural England, looking at the physical characteristics of rivers in the Upper Dove catchment, including the River Manifold (Rice & Toone, 2011). Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 2.0 Catchment / Fishery Overview The Manifold is a tributary of the River Dove, rising at Flash Head and joining the Dove at Ilam. The upper reaches flow over geology dominated by sandstones and undifferentiated silt/mudstones, predominantly of the Millstone Grit series and Bowland Formation; these rocks weather easily producing finer clastic sediments (cobbles, gravels, sand). Further downstream below Ecton, the geology is predominantly limestone, which is more resistant but soluble, producing classic karst features including subterranean drainage and dry valleys; this results in the river between Wetton Mill and Ilam being seasonally dry (Rice & Toone, 2011).

    Local Environment Agency Pi

    local environment agency pi DOVE ENVIRONMENTAL OVERVIEW AUGUST 1999 Ashbourne Dove LEAP Foreword I am delighted to introduce the Consultation Draft for the Dove Local Environment Agency Plan. This is the third LEAP to be produced in the Upper Trent Area of the Midlands Region and looks at environmental issues within the River Dove catchment. The Agency in consultation with key organisations has identified a number of environmental issues relevant to this area. We need to confirm that we have addressed all current issues and the options to resolve them, taking into account the often conflicting demands on the environment by its users. The LEAP process will provide a vision for the environmental needs of the River Dove area. It will provide a framework within which we can seek to develop new partnerships with organisations and bodies with whom we wish to share a common approach on environmental , issues. This report is published as part of our commitment to being open and consulting with others about our work. This will be part of a major consultation exercise and marks the start of a three month period of consultation. Following the consultation period the Agency will produce a five year action plan which will set out a costed programme of work by the Agency and other organisations. Annual reviews over the five year period will report on significant achievements and progress being made on the issues. Your views are extremely important. Only by letting us know your opinions will we be able to make a real difference to your local environment.

    The Ultimate Peak District & Derbyshire Bucket List: 101 Great Things To Do 1. Embrace the great outdoors in the UK’s first National Park Established in 1951, the Peak District is the country’s oldest National Park. If you love the outdoors, this protected area of natural beauty - which covers 555 square miles in total - offers over 200 square miles of stunning open access land to explore. 2. Visit the ‘jewel in the Peak District’s crown’ at Chatsworth House Home to the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, Chatsworth is one of the UK’s favourite stately homes. Discover over 30 magnificent rooms, a 105-acre garden, parkland, a farmyard and playground, and one of Britain’s best farm shops. 3. Conquer the tallest ‘Peak’ in the Peak District At 636 metres above sea level, you’ll feel like you’re standing on top of the world when you conquer the Kinder Scout plateau. It’s the highest point in the National Park and was also the site of the 1932 Mass Trespass, a landmark event which sparked a debate about the right to roam in the countryside, leading to the establishment of the Peak District as the first National Park two decades later. 4. Discover the UK’s oldest Ice Age cave art at Creswell Crags Walk in the footsteps of Ice Age hunters, uncover the secrets of early man, discover incredible Ice Age cave art and marvel at the UK’s largest discovery of ritual protection marks at this picturesque limestone gorge on the Derbyshire/Nottinghamshire border. 5.

    The Walk Starts and Ends at Wetton Mill, Where There Are Public Toilets and a Café

    Wetton Mill Circular Let's Go Peak District Route Summary This circular walk is simply stunning, offering some of the very best views of the Staffordshire Peak District countryside. Route Overview Category: Walking Length: 7.700 km / 4.81 mi Last Modified: 18th July 2019 Difficulty: Medium Rating: Unrated Surface: Moderate Date Published: 18th July 2019 Description This circular walk is simply stunning, offering some of the very best views of the Staffordshire Peak District countryside. Starting at the lovely Wetton Mill (SK 09593, DE6 2AG), it follows the course of the Manifold Way past spectacular limestone cliffs, through shady woodland and alongside the River Manifold, before heading quite gently uphill to some of the most fantastic and far-reaching views in the area. It emerges in the pretty village of Wetton at roughly the halfway point, where there are public toilets and a dog-friendly pub that serves good food and real ales. From Wetton the route follows field tracks down into the hidden Manifold Valley, a peaceful haven for wildlife, before returning to the start point. This is a walk of 5 miles. The terrain is not particularly challenging although there are uneven stretches on some of the field paths. There are both stiles and squeeze stiles, which may prove difficult for large or less agile dogs. The walk starts and ends at Wetton Mill, where there are public toilets and a café. Children of all ages can play in a shallow stream there too, and explore prehistoric cave systems. Allow 4-5 hours to complete this walk at a moderate pace, allowing for rest stops to take in the views.
