Hiking
The gothic arch of Cherry Eye Bridge is a splendid sight, but it is its name that gives a hint to this now tranquil region's industrial past. It is named after the red eye that the 18th-century iron workers suffered from dust particles thrown into the air by the various industrial processes.
In its 1730 heyday, the Churnet Valley's works produced an annual 150,000 tonnes of ironstone. The Consall Nature Park is full of vestiges from this booming era.
