Once upon a time, this part of the Goyt Valley was a hive of industrial activity. Packhorses would have travelled up and down the valley from the quarry carrying cut and milled stone. However gone are those busy days, and few signs remain of the industry. It is still an interesting and pretty place, never the less.
