Peak District

We took a day to travel about an hour north of Birmingham to visit the Peak District of England.

If you are looking for hikes in the Peak District, please check out the 10 Adventures Great Walks In The Peak District.

Here are some photos from our visit. This is a great area for a weekend drive up from the south.

<p>I like it when you set out with certain photos in mind and come back with something you never anticipated. A little boat gliding along on the calm water of Ladybower reservoir this morning.</p>

<p>An unidentified FL Shed passes Tunstead Works working the 6E69 (06:38) Tunstead Sidings to Peterborough West Yard. Tunstead quarry is one of Europe's largest quarries that extracts Carboniferous limestone, which dominates the scenery in the Peak District. The limestone is amongst the purest in Europe and the quarry produces lime, concrete and aggregates operated by Lafarge Tarmac.</p>

<p>Close up along side Ashover Rock which is a local nature reserve. Ashover Rock, or 'The Fabrick' as it's also known locally, is close to the village of Ashover.<br />
<br />
From here on a clear day you can see miles n miles n miles in all directions.<br />
<br />
It sits on an area of heathland at 299m above sea level. As a result there are excellent panoramic views of the surrounding countryside - on a really clear day, it's possible to see Lincoln Cathedral (with a telescope).<br />
<br />
The surrounding heathlands are important habitats for a variety of wildlife in the area.</p>
