Crag Inn

Highlight • Pub

Pub in a great setting. However when last visited in 2020 it was closed other than a hatch from which you could purchase a drink to have in the beer garden. No facilities.

Whetstone Ridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the Peak District Ethels, this is a great one to bag in conjunction with Shining Tor or Shutlingsloe.

Danebower Colliery

Highlight (Segment) • Monument

Only construction remaining is the ventilation chimney.

Colliery was open 1780s to 1880s. Not as much slag as I would expect, what is there is larger grade stone, the smaller grades possibly washed out?
