As I left Sheffield and saw the amazing pre-dawn sky in my rear view mirror, I almost diverted to Higger Tor where I could have included in my shots. I carried on to Curbar Edge and though, the impressive sky was mostly behind, there was enough colour in the frame shooting away from it.</p>

<p>The storm on the previous post missed me, but turning around this one was heading right for me. Over Bleaklow, in the centre distance, the snow is already falling</p>

<p>The Grade I Listed Peveril Castle, which is run by English Heritage, Castleton, in the Peak District, Derbyshire.<br />
<br />
Peveril Castle stands sentinel on a limestone outcrop over the west end of Hope Valley, during an ancient landscape. On the north side of the valley is Mam Tor, a Bronze Age hill fort, and 2 miles (3.2 km) to the east at Brough and Shatton is the Roman fort of Navio. The valley formed a natural line of communication and had extra importance due to valuable mineral resources in the area, particularly lead.<br />
<br />
Peveril Castle was the caput of the Honour of Peverel and was founded sometime between the Norman Conquest of 1066 and its first recorded mention in the Domesday Survey of 1086, by William Peveril, who held lands in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire as a tenant-in-chief of the king. Nearby Castleton benefited from the presence of the castle, which acted as the caput of the feudal barony of "Peak". <br />
<br />
William Peveril the Younger inherited his father's estates, which in 1155 were confiscated by King Henry II. While in royal possession, Henry visited the castle twice and 1164 hosting King Malcolm IV of Scotland. <br />
<br />
The Earls of Derby had a claim to the Peveril family's estates through marriage, and in 1199 William de Ferrers, the fourth earl, paid 2,000 marks for the Peak lordship although the castle remained under royal control. The closest Peveril Castle came to seeing battle was in 1216 when King John gave the castle to William de Ferrers, but the castellan refused to relinquish control. Although they were both John's supporters, the king authorised the earl to use force to evict the castellan, who eventually capitulated, although there is no evidence that the castle was assaulted.<br />
<br />
In 1223 the castle returned to the Crown. In the 13th century there were periods of building work at the castle, and by 1300 its final form had been established. Toward the end of the 14th century, the barony was granted to John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster. Having little use for the castle, he ordered some of its material to be stripped out for re-use, marking the beginning of its decline. <br />
<br />
From the time of John of Gaunt to the present day, the castle has been owned and administered by the Duchy of Lancaster. Peveril Castle became less important administratively and by 1609 was already left in ruins. <br />
