I have been doing a fair bit of work in the White Peak it would seem recently and Peaseland Rocks was one of my latest locations. Peaseland Rocks is high above Wolfscote Dale where it meets Biggin Dale and the River Dove flows through it. Peaseland Rocks also looks directly up to Wolfscote Hill, which … Read more

Pilsbury Castle was a Norman Castle in the Peak District near the hamlet of Pilsbury, a few miles down the road from Longor and Hartington. It is situated next to the River Dove looking up to Chrome and Parkhouse Hill and Axe Edge with much of the White Peak Behind. It is also right on … Read more
Wolfscote Hill is a lovely little hill in the White Peak District near the village of Hartington. It is definitely one of the less frequented hills in the Peak District and have yet to meet a single soul on there. It stands only at 388m, but at the top there is a lovely minature version … Read more

The aim of the trip was to show a different side to the Island for tourists who may perceive the place as a party island/resort. With this in mind I researched … Read more
Thought I’d pop a quick blog on from recent Peak District images. To be honest, the light in the recent months just hasn’t been that spectacular (or at least when I’ve been able to get out) and at times it can start to dent your enthusiasm. That said I’ve been out plenty, stood in many … Read more
Really last minute decision last Friday to go and do a wild camp up in the Lake District. The weather as we know had been very poor all week, but with the weather looking set to improve over the bank holiday weekend I couldn’t resist going as my plans for the weekend I had previously … Read more
