The Cromford Canal ran 14.5 miles (23.3 km) from Cromford just south of Matlock to the Erewash Canal. The canal was agreed in 1789 and completed by 1794. The canal mostly carried coal, iron and lead ore from the mines of the High Peak as well as spun cotton from the mills. The canal stopped being used commercially in the mid 1900's when railways took over. Some sections have been restored more recently and it's a very pleasant, flat and well surfaced trail to walk along.

The Young People’s Forest at Mead is being planted on an extensive former open cast mining site near Heanor in Derbyshire.

Oxhay Wood is a forest in Derbyshire. Oxhay Wood is situated nearby to the village Crich Carr and the hamlet Wakebridge. Duke's quarries were a large network of 19th century stone quarries with tracks leading down to the Cromford Canal and railway.

The National Trust have now closed the car park (since 2020, still closed in Spring 2022) apparently due to "anti-social behaviour". No car parking nearby but can still be accessed by walkers and, after climbing over a mound of earth, by cyclists.
