Contrasting scenes in The Peak District
Over the weekend I was out in The Peak the weather was gorgeous fleeting clouds, and hard edged sunlight threw everything into sharp contrast. I travelled up the A515 out past Sterndale Moor and was amazed by the lack of people and cars. This area is known as the White Peak because the Limestone is not capped by the much harder Gritstone, Hence the terms White & Dark Peak.
The area is ideally for a visit, it's nowhere near as busy as Castleton, Edale, or Ladybower. The landscape offers fantastic panoramic views over Staffordshire, Cheshire and South Debyshire. Take a trip out and discover the quieter beauty of Alsop on the dale or Middleton by Yougrave and avoid the busy crowds.
