See if you can meet Lenny the very friendly station cat here

There's a certain irony to a summit named Black Edge having such a startlingly white trig point. Black Edge stands proud at 1,663 feet (507 m) in the western Peak District. This classic Dark Peak moorland drops relatively steeply to the east, providing excellent views. To the west is the heathery sprawl of Combs Moss.

This fine gritstone outcrop is just a short way up from Chapel-en-le-Frith station. It's relatively popular with climbers, though the routes tend to be more difficult than the busier Windgather Rocks nearby. It's a prominent feature on a hike to Black Edge from the town below. Interestingly, it was also the site of a prehistoric hillfort.

Combs Reservoir was built during the Industrial Revolution as a feeder reservoir for the Peak Forest Canal. It's possible to loop around the reservoir, though some of this is on roads. The views north towards Eccles Pike are splendid.
