Path - The short path is only suitable for motorised wheelchairs and is made up of crushed stone with some undulations and rock lumps [ see photo’s ], and the path is on a slope, and is a there and back walk. This is not a path for manual wheelchairs but from the car park and on the roadway you can get some marvellous views and there is 1 bench at the start of the walk. The path is better to visit in a dry weather spell as it can be muddy.

Eastern Moors Peak District National Park Authority
www.peakdistrict.gov.uk 8: The Eastern Moors Peak District National Park Authority The Eastern Moors Higger Tor © Peak District National Park Authority Introduction The Eastern Moors is a sparsely settled area of gritstone uplands lying to the south-east of the Dark Peak plateau. The area is a continuation of these Dark Peak uplands but the broad, upland plateau character associated with the Dark Peak alters to a somewhat lower landscape with a narrower moorland top and main western shelf, and a greater proportion of enclosed moorland. Edges are a characteristic of the area, mostly running along the north-south axis of the Moor’s western edge. This is an elevated landscape that drops away to the Derwent Valley to the west, the Derbyshire Peak Fringe to the south and the Yorkshire Peak Fringe to the east. The Eastern Moors provides a number of vantage points over the city of Sheffield in the lower lying eastern landscape. 2 Landscape Strategy and Action Plan Peak District National Park Authority 8: The Eastern Moors dominated by purple moor grass occur in places and may reflect Physical influences past heavy grazing or even agricultural treatment.

PR Box 3 1 Transcriptions
PR box 3 / 1 transcriptions All of the letters in this subsection have been transcribed. A full listing of all the Pitt- Rivers’ letters in the PRM is available here. All notes about aspects of the letters were also prepared by the transcriber, Alison Petch. Transcriptions and notes were prepared between January and February 2015. Please note: all of this Box 3/ 1 section are tagged together using a stationery tag through hole in top left. [Stamp: Office of Works B 6856 30 Oct 1898] [Subject] Public Buildings Estimates 1897-8 Protection of Ancient Monuments [Memoranda] General Pitt Rivers, Will you be so good as to state before the 15th, prox. what sum you consider should be provided in the Estimates for 1897-8 for this service. It has been the practice of late years to take a sum of £100 per annum [Illegible initials] 30 Oct 96 [Different handwriting, if it is Pitt-Rivers’ it is much neater than usual] Since 1891 the Ancient Monuments Act has been virtually in abeyance, in consequence of the decision of the Board of Works, that I should no longer endeavour to obtain fresh monuments, but that “the Act being permissive the attitude of the Government should be passive.” If this working of the Act is still considered satisfactory, I see no reason why any additional sum should be noted beyond what is necessary to keep the Monuments now under the Act in good repair. I have no opinion to offer on the subject. My letter to Mr Primrose [1] of the 20th Feb 1891 sufficiently explains my views, but I think it desirable to take this opportunity of referring to the subject, in case dissatisfaction should be expressed on the part of archaeologists, and in order to show that it was not by my desire that the Act was discontinued.

Dark Peak Boundary Walk
DARK PEAK BOUNDARY WALK The title 'Boundary Walk' refers to the nature of the walk, a circuit of 80 miles around the fringes of three great moorland masses of Kinder Scout, Bleaklow and Black Hill that comprise the Dark Peak. The route is mainly high level but linking these sections a variety of terrain including bridleway tracks, field paths, sheltered wooded cloughs and numerous reservoirs will be encountered. The bleak and wild moors of the Dark ·Peak are never far away and often dominate the views. The route was completed to my satisfaction in November 1987 having been put together on occasional weekend trips over a couple of years. My intention was to create an enjoyable (hopefully) circular walk suitable for short hostelling/backpacking holidays. The entire route is covered by OS Sheet 110 (1:50,000) Sheffield and Huddersfield area. Route Outline From Sett Valley car park, Hayfield via Cracken Edge - South Head - Dimpus Gate Rushup Edge - Rowter Farm - Bradwell Moor - Bradwell. Abney Moor - Leadmill Bridge - Hathersage. Mitchell Field - Carl Walk - Burbage Brook - Stanage Edge - Moscar Lodge - Sugworth Hall - Strines- Back Tor - Margery Hill - Cut Gate - Langsett. Carlecotes - Dunford Bridge - Winscar Reservoir - Holme - Wessenden Head - Marsden. Redbrook Reservoir - Diggle - Aldermans Hill - Dove Stone Reservoir - Chew Reservoir - Tintwistle - Padfield - Old Glossop. Cown Edge - Rowarth - Lantern Pike - Birch Vale - Sett Valley Trail back to Hayfield.

Hurtle Route Description
Route Description Note, this is a general description of the areas you will pass through on the Hathersage Hurtle route, and a note of the terrain you will encounter. Under no circumstances should it be used as a substitute for a map. That would be just silly. The Hathersage Hurtle is 20 miles of pure Peak District gloriousness, starting and ending in the beautiful village of Hathersage. The terrain is mixed; we take you on country lanes, moorland tracks, hill trails and woodland paths. Oh, and we show you some of the most inspiring views in the country. You lucky things! The race starts in a field just over the historic Leadmill Bridge in Hathersage. From there you head out on country lanes up to High Low Hill, with beautiful views back across Hathersage and over to Stanage and Higger Tor. The route then continues on woodland paths through Dunge Wood and out on to the wild, open expanse of Offerton Moor. The terrain here is trickier, using uneven moorland trails, but again the views are magnificent, with Bamford Edge, Win Hill and Lose Hill in front of you, and Mam Tor visible in the further distance. You will find Check Point 1 on Offerton Moor. You need to use your dibber at every Check Point please, so that we can keep an eye on your progress and know if you’ve hit any difficulties along the way. Offerton Moor soon gives way to Shatton Moor, with the highly visible way marker of the tall telephone mast. From here you are back on country lanes, and head down on Brough Lane towards the villages of Brough (where you’ll find Check Point 2) and Shatton.
