ストーニーミドルトンのおすすめランニングルート

a very big hole

Arrive mid-morning on a crisp autumn day to wander the quaint village green with its medieval cross, duck pond, and bull-ring—perfect for photos of the limestone cottages without crowds. Grab a hearty pub lunch at The Bull’s Head, savoring local ales and farm-fresh dishes, then embark on the easy 2.4-mile walk to nearby Eyam (the “Plague Village”) for a dose of history amid rolling dales. Park at the edge of the village (limited spots), wear comfy shoes for the quiet lanes, and time your visit for late August if you can catch the colorful well dressings festival

Sir William Hill Road is an ancient packhorse route and a former section of the 1758 Sheffield-Buxton Turnpike. Today it provides an engaging challenge in both ascent and descent - the gravel trail is rough and stony.

Wasn't much fun going down, probably even worse going up. There's a tight junction at the bottom, lots of hidden driveways, a school and lots of houses. This really isn't a sensible road to go down fast, or at all unless you trust your brakes and know they work.

One of the best cafes in the Peak District. Ice cream in the summer, soup in the winter. Really friendly to cyclists and dogs. Blankets and dog treats available.

The church is medieval with elements from the 13th and 15th centuries. It was partially rebuilt in 1619. The church was restored in 1868–70 by George Edmund Street.

This very fine Anglo-Saxon (Mercian) cross stands 8 foot tall and dates from the 8th-9th centuries. It was apparently set up by missionaries from the north at Cross Low on the moors to the west of Eyam. Originally it was a wayside preaching cross that was 10 feet high and certainly must have looked very spectacular, but now it is only 8 feet high due to it being knocked about a bit in more recent times and losing one of its shaft sections. In the 18th century the cross was discovered beside a trackway on the moors, from whence it was brought to the churchyard of St Lawrence’s church; but then for a long time it stood abandoned and uncared for in the corner of the churchyard. Eventually it was restored and placed in the churchyard where it now stands proudly.

A fairly austere building externally, it used to be fairly open access but now the mine is sealed tight. The mine is situated above the plague village of Eyam. It was a ‘mixed ore’ mine which tapped into the Hucklow edge veins. It was opened around 1936 by Glebe Mines Ltd to produce fluorspar for the steel industry (used as flux). It was then taken over by Laporte Industries Ltd in 1959 and operated until it was placed on care and maintenance in March 1979. In March 1986 the headgear was removed and the shaft capped and fenced off. Today the main buildings are still intact and the shaft, although sealed with a metal grid and fenced off, is still in-situ.
