ヨールグリーブの絶景の山頂・トップ15

谷の素晴らしい景色を望む、南または北からの短くて急な登り

top of wheeldon..quite steep

Heights of Abraham great views

Very steep (near vertical) section at the top not for the faint hearted! Climbing briefly required and the rocks may be slippery if wet, some surfaces are a bit crumbly, and it is likely to be windy! But wonderful views

19th century pleasure ground which exploited the dramatic qualities of the Derwent valley. Peter Arkwright of Willersley Castle enclosed the grounds c 1860 and constructed pedestrian paths from a new entrance on the south side approached from the bridge to Matlock Bath railway station. The entrance from Starkholmes Road was retained and could be used by carriages. A pathway was formed through Fern Cave (scheduled ancient monument) and another on a narrow ledge along part of the cliff face. In 1879 the grounds were leased to the Matlock and High Tor Recreation Grounds Company Ltd and Milner of London was retained to supervise landscaping. Arkwright's Grand Walk, also used by carriages, was created, leading south to the summit from a gateway in Pig Tree Lane, now Pic Tor Lane. A refreshment room was erected near the summit, tennis and quoit or skittle grounds were constructed close to a modified southern entrance and additional paths put in with a broad flight of steps.

Tough little steep hill in this area but worthwhile doing.
