Long Low, Wetton

Long Low is a Neolithic and Bronze Age site in the English county of Staffordshire. It is about 2 km SE of Wetton. It consists of two round cairns linked by a connecting bank- an unusual layout and one that is unique in England. The northern cairn measures 23 m in diameter and survives to a height of 2.4 m. It appears to be related to other chamber tombs of the Peak District group and was excavated by Samuel Carrington in 1849.

Located at 53.0822, -1.81932 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.

Dovedale

Dovedale is a popular dale in the Peak District of England. It is owned by the National Trust, and annually attracts a million visitors. The valley is cut by the River Dove and runs for just over 3 miles between Milldale in the north and a wooded ravine near Thorpe Cloud and Bunster Hill in the south. The wooded ravine contains an attractive set of stepping stones which are often featured on calendars, and two caves known as the Dove Holes.

Located at 53.0597, -1.7767 (Lat. / Lng.), about 3 miles away.

Thorpe Cloud

Thorpe Cloud is an isolated limestone hill lying between the villages of Thorpe and Ilam at the southern end of Dovedale. It is a popular hill amongst the many day-trippers who visit the area, and provides a fine viewpoint north up the dale and south across the Midland plain. Like much of the dale, including Bunster Hill on the opposite bank, it is in the ownership of the National Trust, and is part of their South Peak Estate. These Dovedale properties were acquired by the Trust in 1934.

Located at 53.056, -1.77616 (Lat. / Lng.), about 3 miles away.

Beeston Tor

Beeston Tor is a limestone cliff in Staffordshire. It overlooks the confluence of the River Hamps with the River Manifold, and is popular with climbers. There was a small station here, of the same name, opened by the narrow gauge (2' 6") Leek and Manifold Valley Light Railway on 27 June 1904, whilst being entirely operated by the North Staffordshire Railway. The station had no siding – unlike most of the stations on the line – but there was a refreshment room.

Located at 53.0831, -1.8447 (Lat. / Lng.), about 2 miles away.

Manifold Way

The Manifold Way is a footpath and cycle way in Staffordshire, England. Some 8 miles in length, it runs from Hulme End in the north to Waterhouses in the south, mostly through the Manifold Valley and the valley of its only tributary, the River Hamps, following the route of the former Leek and Manifold Valley Light Railway, a 30 gauge line which closed in 1934 after a short life.
