Last week saw much of the UK under a blanket of snow caused by what is being nicknamed “The Beast from the East”, bringing at least some parts of the country to a stand still or at least a mild panic that there might be a sudden shortage of bread & milk. Usually I mock … More Beast from the East

Curbar Edge

Tue 29th Aug '17

What better way to spend a bank holiday Monday than to go walking in the Derbyshire hills. On a clear day from Curbar Edge you can see out over the Derbyshire moors and valleys. I forget how close we are to the Peak District.

Autumn Woodland

Manor Fields Park

Since we stay a stones throw away from Manor Fields Park it would be mad not to take advantage of this natural scenery.
