Overview

Starting at Cutthroat Bridge, we walk above Ladybower Reservoir until Derwent village then a steepish ascent to the named boulders of Derwent Edge: Lost Lad, Back Tor, Cakes of Bread, Salt Cellar. Gradually descending to finish.

Hopefully lots of dramatic views. Walking mainly on stoney paths or slab pavements.

At end of walk would those driving mind giving lifts back to Sheffield to public transport users?!

No dogs please: we go through some farm fields.

UPDATE: Judith is serving mince pies and tea at her house after the walk. So please could some drivers offer lifts to her place!
