Stubbing Pond's history is connected to the industrial past of the Wingerworth area. The pond was created as a source of water power for various activities, including the operation of a smithy. The dam for Stubbing Great Pond was constructed around 1700. From the pond, one can see Stubbing Court, the ancestral home of the Hunloke family.

That's what it is! I thought it was a hobbit house or similar lol

There is a Trig point and a Doomsday Bunker, which is locked from the inside to prevent access, The shaft and ventilation shaft was clad in Derbyshire stone, but locals say that the stone that was used to build it was stolen long ago, hence the reason for it being locked. At 299m above sea level, the (Rock) Fabrick is the highest point in the area and the views are stunning.

Shillito Wood is a small plantation on the edge of the Eastern Moors, with plenty of space for dogs to run around off the lead, all year round. During bird breeding season, 1st March-31st July, dog owners are required to keep dogs on leads elsewhere across the moors. The damp woodland environment means this is great place to discover fungi during autumn. There is an abundance of bird life at Shillito; great spotted woodpecker, yellow hammer and blue tits are often spotted on the feeders. The medieval cross which stands in the woods marks the original boundary of land leased by Lord of Barlow to the monks of Louth Park Abbey in Lincolnshire.

Lots of bird-watching interest in the Great Grey Shrikes that have set up home there. I saw one through a guy's telescope but was unable to get a photo.

Well worth a visit. A circular walk taking in Northedge-Alton & Bolehill gives great views to Bolsover, Chesterfield, Hardwick and beyond.

No cycling allowed up to the Rock but it only a short hike up from the road
