Overview

From the car park at Errwood Hall we walk up the road and through some woods to Derbyshire Bridge, where the toilet may be open! From there we cross the A537 and climb towards Axe Edge Moor, descending via Dane Head and Orchard Farm to Three Shires Head, where of course we will stop for lunch. We then head back, crossing the A54 to Dane bower hollow, walking below Shining Tor and back to the cars.
