Castleton Parish Statement (Draft)
Castleton Parish Statement (draft) Introduction Castleton is a vibrant village in the heart of the magnificent Peak District National Park. It has a rich blend of history in the centre of one of the most popular locations for walkers, whether they are casual walkers or experienced fell trekkers. There is a range of pubs, cafes, and other eating places to suit everyone's tastes during and at the end of an active day. Geography Castleton village is situated at the head of the Hope Valley. It straddles the white peak (limestone to the south) and the dark peak (millstone grit to the north). It is right at the heart of some of the most attractive scenery in the Peak District National Park (PDNP). Mam Tor and Lose Hill look down on the village and the iconic Winnats Pass which is on one of two roads in/out of the village. Winnats Pass provides access to the west – Buxton, Chapel-en-le- Frith, Manchester and Manchester Airport. The other road in/out of Castleton is down the Hope Valley to Hope village, Hathersage, Sheffield and Derby. Castleton Parish Statement (draft) History Looking down on Castleton is Peveril Castle which dates from the 11th Century and was built to protect the local lead mining and hunting. Lead mining was carried out by the Romans. A small settlement (Pechesers) was recorded at Peak Cavern in 1086 (The Domesday Book) and the planned village was probably laid out in the 12th century. Villagers There are between 500 and 600 permanent residents, there are many elderly residents and only a few families with children. -

Also the S.E. Cheshire Derbyshire, a few in Cheshire, Staffordshire moorlands have recently been thoroughly studied and Lancashire (16, 6 and 2 pairs, during the preparation of a breeding bird atlas respectively), and the rest in Yorkshire for the county. Where I found 15 pairs in (Yalden 1974). There are very sparse 1970-75, there seem to be only eight pairs now populations of Golden Plovers in S.W. Britain (A. Booth, D.W. Yalden pets. ohs.). and Wales. On Dartmoor, an R.S.P.B. survey found only 14 pairs, and in the national The Pennine Way long distance footpath runs breeding bird survey this species was only along the ridge from Snake Summit south to recorded in 50 (10 km) squares in Wales, (Mudge Mill-Hill and consequently this area has been et a•. 1981, Shatrock 1976): the total Welsh subjected to disturbance from hill-walkers. population was estimated at 600 pairs. Further Here the Golden Plover population has been north in the Pennines, and in Scotland, tensused annually since 1972. The population populations are larger.
