ウィンステアのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Cork Stone is one of several interesting standing stones on Stanton Moor. It is 5m tall piece of weathered sandstone located above the remnants of a quarry site. At some point hollowed out steps and metal rings were added to allow people (kids and their grownups!) to climb to the top

The original hall was said to have been built between 1628 and 1629 for Francis Moore, a proprietor of several local lead mines. The stone used in the construction is said to have come from the Stancliffe quarries in Darley Dale, being transported on pack horses. The hall was rebuilt by the Moore family around 1720. It was lived in by William Marsland until 1903 and then his widow until 1926 when it was sold for £750 (equivalent to £55,000 in 2023) to Mr. Butler of Wingfield. In the 1970s the hall became Winster Hall Hotel run by Derek and Pauline Wood, but this closed in 1999. It reverted to a private dwelling and is let out as a self-catering holiday home.

The path is horrible in places; sludgy, slippery and so churned up that it very tricky to continue. In some parts, a stream pouring down the hillside actually joins the path to make it even more boggy. 💦 Maybe it's better in summer.

It's a lovely brick built listed building and on the first floor is an unmanned information room with interpretation panels detailing the history of the village and a scale model of Winster. Standing almost in the centre of the main street, Winster Market House is a dominating feature of the village, and stands as testimony to its once thriving past. Winster village itself is interesting to explore on foot, as part of a visit to the Peak District.

Really lovely tower to come across, easy access for photo opportunities. steps are small and steep but still manageable even on snowy days just mind your step

This picturesque, winding woodland path is packed with vibrant flowers and towering trees. It’s particularly stunning in spring when the flowers are in full bloom.

Bonsall applied for a market charter in the 1600s but this was refused. Nevertheless an impressive market cross was erected. The cross shaft is mounted on a base which stands on top of a set of concentric steps numbering from eleven to fifteen due to the sloping road. It is thought the cross shaft may date from the 14th or 15th century. In 1678 this was topped with a stone ball carved with faces. In 1870 the shaft was restored, paid for by the Prince family of Bonsall.”

The Limestone Way is a waymarked long-distance footpath in Derbyshire, England. It runs for 46 miles (74 km) through the White Peak of the Peak District National Park, from Castleton south to Rocester over the county boundary into Staffordshire. The trail is named for the limestone scenery along its route.
