A Beautiful View and Area

This is the only remaining manually operated swing bridge on the Macclesfield Canal. The others have either been dismantled or are left open. After some earlier improvement work, it was removed, fully restored and reinstated in full working order in 1998.

Teggsnose Reservoir was built in 1871. It works in conjunction with Bottoms Reservoir to regulate the flow and maintain the current that powered the mills below. The overflow channel allows water to overflow into the lower reservoir rather than overtopping the dam.

Tegg’s Nose has a pretty broad summit top. Here on the southern part of the nose is a good view point that has a stunning vantage point that overlooks Teggsnose and Bottoms Reservoirs. The surrounding woodlands and the lush green patchwork quilt of fields along with the two reservoirs make this a picture postcard scene.

Here at the foot of Tegg’s Nose is a small stream that runs into Teggsnose Reservoir, which is only a stone’s throw away. Over this stream are some stepping stones to help walkers get from one bank to the other while keeping one’s feet dry. It is also a beautiful little spot in the woods, a very serene and tranquil place.

Tegg’s Nose Country Park is an old mining area and hill just east of Macclesfield. It incorporates Tegg’s Nose, a hill with a height of 1,250 feet (380 m), and is the highpoint of the local area with several good viewpoints. The hill was historically mined for millstone grit from the 16th to the mid-20th century. Now disused, there is still a fine collection of old quarrying equipment available on display within the park. It is used for a wide range of recreational activities, and there is a visitors' centre, car park, and toilets just off Buxton.
