Sunday run 21st May
Posted: Wed May 17, 2017 9:28 amThis week we're heading out to the limestone dales of the White Peak where the flowers in the dales and woodlands are stunning at the moment, for a repeat of a glorious 7/8 mile run we did last year. We shall be visiting Peter's Stone in Cressbrook Dale, reputed to be the last hanging place in Derbyshire, Tansley Dale, Tideswell Dale, Water cum Jolly and Ravensdale. On the way we shall be passing Litton Mill with its terrible reputation of cruelty to its workers and Cressbrook Mill. The route is a mix of dales, woodland, fields, riverside and short sections of minor roads. The pace won't be fast to give us a chance to enjoy the scenery and wildlife. Afterwards we shall be visiting the Yonderman Café which has a very high reputation for its breakfasts, bacon butties, etc. etc.
