There is a sense of getting away from it all. To the north there is Mam Tor with Kinder Scout in the background. To the south you can see the wind turbines above Carsington Reservoir and beyond. To the west Tunstead Quarry stands out with Axe Edge Moor and Wild Moor above Buxton on the horizon. To the East you can see the Hunting Tower at Chatsworth with East Moor and Bunker’s Hill wood above. And of course you get great views of Under The Edge villages. I always take my camera and try and capture the moment, the two photos shown are taken from the same spot but illustrate the differing seasons. The trees shown are directly above Moor Lane in Great Longstone. The Edge is riddled with footpaths so I can walk a different route every time I go up there. In this busy world of ours it is quite therapeutic to be able to walk for a couple of hours and not see another soul. At this time of year we get the starlings coming in to roost overnight in the reed beds on Middleton Moor. Thousands fly in from all directions at sunset and leave again at sunrise. Sometimes they will murmurate (fly in formation, creating patterns in the sky) before they fly down to the reed beds.

Looking back over the past year, we owe a very big Thank You to two old stalwarts who have left the team, for all their contributions that have helped make UTE what it is today. this job involves a lot of work behind the scenes, and you know you’re in good and professional hands when no one else is Sallyaware Kehr of this! started Richard as Treasurer Carter has in 2006joined and us ashas Sally’s kept the replacement administration - he has and had financial a lot of side experience in apple-pie with order. this sort As always, of role in other organisations. Ian Gilbert joined the Editorial team ten years ago in 2009, helping to propel UTE to a higher level in terms of graphics (particularly on adverts) and software. He was very passionate about UTE and things being done correctly, which raised the level of professionalism and helped make layout more consistent between the different Editors. The quality of production before and after Ian joining is very noticeable, as can be seen from looking back at old issues on the website (another innovation he was responsible for). Ian also obtained multiple software licences to avoid Editors having to share a laptop, which they used to hand round each month, rather like the old sisters in Greek mythology who only had one eye and one tooth between them! Ian also managed to bring costs down and improve quality by switching printing companies. And a warm welcome back to Michael Beale, who stepped down as an Editor last year on moving to London to a new job, where he actually uses the same layout software as he did for UTE.

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.

His photo is of a Spring Starflower or Springstar , part of the onion and amyrillis family. The flowers are honey scented, which is no doubt what attracted the ant. Alfie is a keen photographer with his own Olympus DSLR camera, and this scene caught his eye under a large yew tree at the bottom of Church Lane. His creativity is not limited just to photography: Alfie loves cats and in Year 5 he and a friend made a comic called Cat Man!
