Higher Shelf Stones lies on the edge of Bleaklow Hill, a vast moorland plateau in the Peak District National Park. Bleaklow’s edge is peppered with impressive gritstone rocks and Higher Shelf Stones is one such place, found at 2,037 feet (621 m). It overlooks Doctor’s Gate, a Roman Road that is rather wiggly, a rarity for the ancient civilisation and evidence that even the mighty Romans couldn’t beat the High Peak’s stubborn terrain.

This is a great place with the quirky stones, rock mounted trig point and nearby aircraft site. Good views to be had and also a UK designated Nuttall along with Bleaklow Head and Kinder Scout.

If you follow the trail down from the trig point back to snake pass summit you pass a couple of surprise waterfalls.

Great place with the quirky rocks, cool rock mounted trig point and the sombre wreckage of an American strata fortress nearby. Good views and a good rest spot...if you have the weather.
