This is one to try when near to Eyam, the beautiful Derbyshire village which has the dubious distinction of being the site of the outbreak of the plague in 1665.
This is another one that most people can easily have a go at. It also has the advantage of having a pub to look forward to for some en-route refreshment! ------------------------------------------------------- Starting at the right-angled bend in the road, take the rough track as it climbs towards Sir William Hill. You then have two options: cross the first or second stile and take the paths that head across Eyam Moor. Both paths converge at another stile at the meeting point of three walls. Continue downhill to a lovely quiet spot called Stoke Ford, a great place for a picnic. (An optional extension would be to walk up Abney Clough to the hamlet of Abney returning to the valley via Cockney Farm) Turn upstream being careful to take the lower of the two paths - not the one you came down on). This gently rises across the contours. At the next path junction take the central of the three options. At the next junction take the path that cross the stream and ascends to the lane. If you fancy a spot of refreshment turn right along the lane and you get to The Barrel Pub. If the starting point is more important then turn left instead. last updated: 06/04/2008 at 18:35 You are in: Derby > Places > Walks > Eyam Moor and Stoke Ford Walk |
