a very big hole

Great railway trail.

Thanks to Neil Theasby for the explanation.............In April 2021, I received a message from the maker of the seat - a gentleman called Neil Smart. Solving the mystery, this is what he wrote: "Longstone Moor Farm was run by my family from 1943 to 2020 and I have spent a lot of time up there. About 9 years ago me and my daughter who was 8 years old at the time were having a picnic on Taylor lane. In the lane was an old broken limestone gate post and I said let's make a chair with it. So me and my daughter Ruby set to building it and she worked so hard I thought it would be nice to make a copper plaque with her name on. I fitted the plaque to the chair with two rivets with my initials stamped on N S. If you sit on the chair facing into the chair you will see an iron ring set in rock with lead on the other side of the lane. I have set 8 such rings in different parts of Longstone Moor and called them the Longstone Moor ringtones I just wanted to leave something behind that will last a long time. I told my daughter when she holds the ring it will be like holding my hand."

I have loved today what a fab ride

Useful trail to lead to some great bridleways (eg south of Bakewell, Monsal Dale & Blackwell) and avoid the roads between trails. Generally busier between 10am and 4pm and very busy with walkers, dogs and families cycling on sunny weekends and bank holidays. Several tunnels, some quite long, with long ones lit from dusk til dawn.

This has got to be the best descent in this area, fast flowing and loose virtually all the way down, it’s one of those descents that’s “as fast as you dare” but watch out for walkers especially in the Spring and Summer when the foliage is full, the Autumn and winter months will give you clear unimpeded view of the trail to enable you to “Hit it” 😉

This is super fast but be careful as there a few public footpaths that cross this trail, nobody what's to hit someone crossing it. We all what to enjoy the countryside and come home in one piece.

End of the trail, you can continue towards Haddon on the bridle path or follow the road into Bakewell.
