1.
The walk starts
from the small, short stay car park at Monsal Head. From the top of the hill you will see a gap
in the wall marked “Monsal Trail & Viaduct”. Go through the gap, turn right and descend
the stepped path.
2.
After 25 yards
you will see a path on your left signed “Monsal Trail & Viaduct”. Turn left and walk down this path, which
leads you to the viaduct. On reaching
the bridge, turn right and walk straight ahead.
You have now joined the Monsal Trail.
3.
After walking
the trail for one mile, you reach the closed off tunnel. To your right is a gate – go through this and
join a path. When you reach a junction
in the path, take the path to the right heading downhill to Cressbrook Mill.
4.
After about 200
yards, the path descends to some stone steps which bend round to the right,
heading for a wooden bridge which crosses the river above a weir. Once over the bridge, walk forward 10 yards
and at a junction turn right and follow the wide track leading into the small
5.
Once through the
mill you reach a metalised road. At this
road turn left. At the fork in the road,
take the lower route on the right, signposted Litton. You now start to ascend a steep hill for
about half a mile.
6.
Where the road
takes a hairpin to the left you continue straight ahead onto a track. After a short distance, a path shoots off to
the left but you carry on along the track on a level plain. The track soon turns into a path (keep left –
beware of the tracks to the right) and starts to head down hill into Cressbrook
Dale.
7.
The path becomes
quite steep as you head for a small footbridge at the base of the hill. Cross over the stream and follow the path
round to your left. You have now entered
an English Nature nature reserve – please respect the wishes of the owners
displayed on the signboard.
8.
Continue along
the path and where you meet a fork in the pathways,
take the path to the right which starts to climb to the head of Cressbrook
Dale. At the top, after about half a
mile, turn left and descend the path down to the
bottom of the Dale at the junction with Tansley Dale. Do not be temped to cross the stile, but
continue along Cressbrook Dale with the wall on your left.
9.
The Dale bends first to
the right and then to the left. After
about half a mile you pass “Peter’s Stone” on your right. Just before the road junction go through a
gate and walk in front of a small cottage.
At the road (the A623) turn right and head for a petrol station and a
large open car park.
10.
From the car
park, cross over the road to the right of the Three Stags’ Heads pub and walk
into Somerset House Farm. You will see
an arrow painted on a breezeblock wall marked FP. This guides you through the farm, firstly
turning left past the cow sheds and then bearing right following the footpath
signs on the wall.
11.
The path takes
you to the left of another breezeblock building. Pass through a gate and carry straight on
across the field with a wall on your left.
Straight ahead of you is Stanley House.
You cross three stiles on your way to the house, the third being next to
Stanley House itself. Cross over this
stile to join a track.
12.
Turn right and
walk along this track with the house on your right. The track soon becomes walled on either
side. Where the track turns 90° left,
carry straight on ahead, heading slightly downhill.
13.
At the bottom of
this small hill, cross over a stile on your left and turn 45° right up to a gap
in the wall. You are now heading for the
14.
Cross straight
over this lane, climb over a stile and head across the field to yet another
stile in the corner, using the radio mast ahead as your guide. After crossing four more stiles and various
small fields, you approach Foolow.
15.
When you reach a
kissing gate, pass through and turn right along the field. Head for a stile next to a gate in the
left-hand corner of the field next to an old stone barn. Cross over the stile, turn left and follow
the path with the barn on your left.
There is a wall covered in moss on either side of you. You are now entering the
16.
This path takes
you into the centre of the village by the green and duck pond. Ahead of you is The Bull’s Head public
house. Pass the pub on your left and
continue along the road, crossing over another road joining from the right.
17.
After 100 yards
or so you reach a public footpath sign, just before a tree, on your right. Cross over the stile and walk 45° left
heading for a stile in the wall. Cross
over this and walk with the wall on your right, crossing four more stiles
before dropping into Linden Dale.
18.
Drop into the
Dale and climb straight back out at the other side, following the path, which
goes slightly to the left and passes through two walls. The path then turns slightly right and
crosses more fields (humps to your left!).
Eventually you reach a track joining from the right. Cross straight over and continue straight
ahead, crossing several more fields (some very small) as you approach to Eyam.
19.
At the end of
the field, adjacent to Fairview Farm, the path goes between two hedges to reach
a stile with a steep drop to a lane on the other side. Cross straight over the lane, then field and
road, to another bordered path. At the
end of this path you emerge onto a street with bungalows. Head straight on down the street in front of
you.
20.
At the junction
turn right and walk along the main street of Eyam, passing the sheep roast,
plague cottages and the church – all on your left – until you reach the
square. From the square take a lane
(Lydgate), this runs to the right of the Eyam Tea Rooms.
21.
At the top of
the lane you will see a footpath sign.
Pass through the gate and continue along the path which soon becomes
open fields. Pass to the right of the
trees and humps, your general direction being straight ahead, and you soon
start to descend “The Cliff” into the
22.
At the bottom of
the hill climb the stile to join the lane.
Turn right and follow the lane through the cottages, descending all the
time through the village. Where the lane
swings right to join the main road you will see the Moon Inn public house.
This is Checkpoint 1.
1.
To rejoin the
walk, cross the road from the Moon Inn and retrace your steps up the lane for
about 20 yards. On your right is another
lane heading for the church – take this lane and after about 20 yards it swings to the left.
Follow this with the church on your right.
2.
Immediately
after the church, follow the lane round to the right. Continue along the lane for about a 100 yards until you reach a footpath sign on your
right, where the lane bears left. Once
clear of the trees the path splits – take the path to the left, heading uphill
to a gap in the trees.
3.
At the top of
the hill you walk, with a wall on your left, to a stile in a wall. Climb over the stile and bear 45° left,
heading for Knouchley Farm. Walk through
the farm with the farm buildings on your right and join the main lane heading
down to the road.
4.
At the road,
cross straight over to a stile opposite.
Climb over the stile and proceed straight ahead and downhill towards the
river. Approximately two thirds of the way down the hill you meet a stile on your left. Cross over this and continue down to the
river.
5.
At the river turn left and follow the path, keeping the river to your
immediate right, until you reach the bridge.
You are now at Froggatt.
6.
Climb the stile
onto the road, turn right and cross the bridge.
Once over the bridge turn left at the road junction and walk through the
village of Froggatt, keeping on the low road (walking in a straight line).
7.
When you reach
the Wesleyan Chapel on your right, where the road bends right, you continue
straight ahead, along a lane opposite (
8.
Where the wall
ends, turn 45° right and head for a stile in the wall opposite. Pass through this stile and continue through
the field, with a wall now on your left, heading for another stile in a
wall. Pass through this stile and walk
through another field, heading for a stile at the entrance to Froggatt Wood
(National Trust property).
9.
Enter the wood
and keep to the path at the bottom of the wood.
After about half a mile, on a well-used path, you reach the other side
of the wood. Here you cross over the
stile and head down to a kissing gate to your left. Pass through this, cross the dyke, and head
45° right across the field, following a well-defined path which leads to the
right of a bridge. At the bridge pass through the kissing gate to join the road.
10. Turn right and walk up the road for about 30 yards,
where you turn right again onto a walled lane. The lane goes gently uphill,
with a church and then houses to your left.
After about 200 yards the lane swings to the right heading for some
buildings. Follow the lane and, just
short of the buildings, at a green metal footpath sign and wooden sign for
“Grouse Inn”, turn left and follow the path into the
wood (Haywood).
11. You now start to climb up through the wood, with a
wall on your left, passing through a stile shortly after the start of your
climb. Continue onwards and upwards and,
where the wall on your left comes to an end, you continue on and up. On the way to the top of the hill, two paths
cross – keep going upwards. Once near
the top the path bears right, follow this path round into Haywood car park.
This is Checkpoint 2.
1.
Proceed through
the car park to the stile at the bottom end and cross over it. The path now descends steeply to some stones
over a small stream. Cross over this and
climb up some steps to a gate. Go
through the gate onto a road and turn right.
2.
After about 50
yards, cross over the road to a gate and obvious path. Go through the gate and continue along the
path, which leads you to Froggatt Edge.
3.
After a third of
a mile, having walked through a small wood, you reach a kissing gate. Pass through this and turn right along the
well-worn path, with the Edge on your right and open moorland on your left.
4.
Follow this path
for approximately two miles, during which time Froggatt Edge becomes Curbar
Edge. After two miles the path descends
to a white gate. Pass through the gate
on the left and follow the obvious path on the right, down to the road. You are now at Curbar Gap.
5.
Cross the road
and rejoin the path, having passed through a gate, and continue ahead with a
stone wall on your left. After a short
while the wall ends and you once again have open moorland to your left.
6.
After about two
thirds of a mile, a small path goes left off the main path past a large stone
(Eagle Stone) and heads down to a stone cross (Wellington Monument). Take this path and, having reached the
7.
At the junction,
turn left and walk up the road for about 200 yards, until you reach another
road signposted “Millthorpe, Barlow”, on your right. Turn right and walk along this road for one
mile, passing Ramsley Reservoir on your left. Ignore the turning off to the
right, in front of the wood, and continue straight ahead, road rising slightly,
for about 150 yards. On your right you
will see a car park (Shillito Wood).
This is Checkpoint 3.
1.
From the car
park cross the road and go through a gate opposite. Walk down the path for about 25 yards to meet
a track. Turn right and walk along the
track for one mile, heading steadily downhill, with Hewitt’s Bank climbing high
on your right. Remain on this track and
you eventually cross a stream via some stepping-stones.
2.
After about 100
yards you reach a gate leading onto
3.
After a quarter
of a mile another path goes across you – continue straight ahead, heading
through to Bank Wood. About 200 yards
further on you meet another path from the side – again continue straight on.
4.
When you come
out of the wood there is a gate ahead of you.
Go over the stile to the left of the gate and continue for a further 150
yards crossing a wooden footbridge on the way. Go through a broken gate to join
a road. Turn right and walk along this
road for about a quarter of a mile, crossing over two roads, one to Baslow and
one to Unthank, and take the second path on the left, immediately before
a track (the entrance to the path is concealed by foliage – take care not to
miss it!).
5.
Go up the steps,
through the squeezer stile and walk up the field with a hedge on your
left. After a short while the path turns
90° right next to an electricity pylon and goes across the field to a gap in
the middle of the hedge. Go through and
head for the top right-hand corner of the next field. Cross over the little
bridge into the next field, turn 45° left, and head across the field to a gap
in the wall. Pass through and go
straight on, crossing the field ahead diagonally to a stile.
6.
When you cross
over the stile carry on along the field edge with a hedge on your right. At the next field go straight ahead, heading
for a stile and gate opposite. Cross
over the stile, over a deep ditch, go through the gate opposite and carry
straight on across the field. Cross over
the next stile and continue straight ahead.
The village you can see in front of you is Cartledge – your target. Cross over the next stile and aim for the
stile opposite in front of which is a newly dug drainage ditch. Cross over this stile and go straight ahead.
7.
When you reach a
small gate, where several footpaths merge, cross over a small bridge over a
stream and follow the footpath sign for Cartledge. This goes left and uphill to a stile in the
corner of the field. Cross over this
stile onto a lane and walk along this lane until you meet the road.
8.
At the road turn
left and walk for about 25 yards before turning right (doubling back on
yourself) to head down
9.
Where the road
turns into a track, carry straight on with Cartledge Hall Farm to your
right. The track moves steadily downhill
and bends round to the left – stay with it.
10.
After about half
a mile the track bears sharply right where it meets a gate. At the bottom of this track, after about a
further mile, you reach a gate. Go
through the gap at the side of this gate onto a wider track and carry on
downwards. The track bends round to the
right to join a metalised road where you turn left – you are now at
Brindwoodgate.
This
is Checkpoint 4.
1.
From Brindwoodgate walk along the road which swings 90° left and
heads uphill. At the brow of the hill,
approximately 200 yards on, turn right immediately after a red post box onto a
lane. Walk along the lane for about 75
yards.
2.
Just before the
lane turns left, you bear right, through a gate and into the wood. This path heads steadily downhill through the
edge of the wood. Where two paths meet,
one heading down to the river, you continue straight ahead keeping the river
and then fishing ponds to your right.
3.
On reaching a
gate, pass through and keep heading straight on. After a short while you go gently uphill to a
gap in a wall. Pass through this and the
path descends to a track. When you reach
the track, turn right and then left along the signed footpath, keeping the
river and fishing ponds on your right.
4.
After about 30
yards you cross a small bridge and bear right.
When you reach the fence, the river taking a sharp turn, cross over the
stile and continue on the fenced path, crossing stiles as you go until you pass
some buildings on your right, one of which is a green corrugated building.
5.
On reaching the
road, turn left to join a bridle path, at the entrance to which is a sign
saying “Private Monkwood. Keep to the
marked bridle and foot path. By order of
the Hadden Estate”. After about 200
yards the bridle path starts to climb uphill and bends round to the left with
Monkwood farm clearly seen on the right.
6.
At the top of
the hill, with the farm on your right, continue along the bridle path, keeping
a wooden fence on your right, and enter Monkwood. Where the bridle path bends left stay with it
and, at the top of the hill, turn right along a path which leads you to the
base of a bridge. This bridge crosses
the A61, Dronfield Bypass.
7.
Cross over the
bridge and at the other side you are forced to turn right, heading into a
wood. Once in the wood, walk straight
ahead uphill along a path. At the top of
the hill the paths swings round to the right with a golf course on your left.
8.
When you see a
stile on your right with a yellow arrow marker pointing to it, cross over and
head across the field with a hedgerow on your right. You are now following the Dronfield 2000
Rotary Walk. Cross over a stile and head
for the farm.
9.
You will now see
another stile. Cross over this and walk
down the track opposite to a stile.
Cross over the stile and follow the path, with trees and hedges to your
left, to yet another stile beside a gate about 70 yards away. Cross over this stile and continue along the
path, with the hedgerow still on your left.
10. At the end of this field cross another stile to a
track. Go straight across to another
stile and cross this. You now have Ouzle
Bank cottage on your left.
11. Walk across the top of the field to a stile on the
right of a gate. Climb over the stile
and continue straight ahead with a fence on your right. Cross another stile, the fence still on your
right turning into a hedgerow after about 30 yards.
12. At the end of this field, the path swings gently left
to a stile. Pass through this stile and
turn left. After about 20 yards turn 90°
right and walk slightly downhill across the field. Having crossed this field, bear right to join
a track with the hedgerow on your left.
You are now heading downhill to the
13. Halfway down the hill, the track bears left – stay
with it, heading for Manor Farm. Once
you reach the farm, take the track to the right, keeping the barn and silos on
your left and the farmhouse on your right (the gate may be locked – if so,
climb over it!). The track descends
downhill to join a road immediately under a railway bridge.
14. Cross over the road and turn right heading
downhill. As you reach some houses about
30 yards before the garage, turn left and walk down the track, soon bearing
right onto a footpath with the Peak Paper building on the left. This path runs right of the gate and fencing
and has corrugated fencing on its right.
15. You soon reach a small footbridge – cross over this
and head uphill through a wood. After a
few yards the path becomes stepped. At
the top of these steps, where several paths meet, go straight ahead to a
kissing gate. Once through this, bear
right for a few yards then turn left up a path which passes by the side of six
cottages (going uphill) on your left.
Going up this path there are open fields on your left and a copse on
your right.
16. At the top of the hill is a kissing gate. Go through this and go straight ahead,
keeping in the middle of humps and hollows.
At this stage the path turns into a wide track.
17. When you reach a gate with a kissing gate on the
right, pass through and continue straight ahead along the track, keeping the
hedge to your left. This track becomes
flanked by a hedge on your left and a fence on your right and leads down to a
metal gate with a stile on its left.
Cross over the stile and walk straight ahead, keeping the
hollybush-style hedge on your left.
18. When the hedgerow swings left, you bear slightly
right, heading for farm buildings and a stile to the right of a metal
gate. Cross over the stile and bear right
to a kissing gate five yards away. Go
through this and onto a metalised road.
You have now reached Apperknowle.
19. Turn left onto the road and walk uphill. The road swings to the left and 30 yards
after the bend you turn right onto another road, doubling back on
yourself. Where the road reaches some
houses, turn left and walk uphill, with the houses on your right.
20. When you reach the road junction at the top of the
hill, turn right and walk along the pavement across the top of Apperknowle
village. After a third of a mile you
reach the Yellow Lion Public House on your left.
This is Checkpoint 5.
1.
On
leaving the Yellow Lion turn left and walk along the road until you meet a
track on the left, opposite the cricket field signposted
“Blackamoor Inn”. Turn left onto this
track which has hedges on both sides.
2.
After
about 200 yards the track turns left and narrows. Continue along the track, passing a small
private airstrip on your left. When you
reach a road you are virtually opposite the car park of the Blackamoor Inn.
3.
At
the road turn right and walk on the grass verge. Just before the road bends to the right, on
the opposite side of the road, is a walled bridge, to the left of which is a stile.
Cross the road and climb over the stile, then turn sharp right and
downhill to a small stream.
4.
Cross
over the stream via two stepping stones and follow the path round to the left
to a stile. Cross over the stile and
carry straight on ahead with the hedgerow marking the stream on your left. The path starts to head downhill and to your
right is the

When
you reach another stile, cross over and continue downhill, hugging the bank of
the stream. When you reach another stile,
cross over and continue straight on to a small footbridge over the stream. Crossing this bridge takes you to a narrow
path with cottages on your left a hedgerow on your right.
6.
At
the end of this small path you come to a gate – go through and head straight on
down what appears to be a driveway.
Continue along until you reach a metalised road. Turn right and head downhill. After about 100 yards you will see a public
footpath sign on your left – take this path.
DO NOT GO THROUGH THE GATE AS THIS LEADS TO A PRIVATE FISHERY – TAKE THE
FOOTPATH TO THE RIGHT OF THE GATE.
7.
About
50 yards down the path is a stile on your right – cross over this and bear 45°
left, heading for a stile in the middle of a fence halfway up a field. Go through this and continue slightly left to
a stile in the corner of the next field.
Cross over this into the next field and walk diagonally right downhill
to an open gate. Go through the gate and
head diagonally left to a stile about a third of the way up the field. Cross over this (slightly awkward) then bear
right, crossing the field, heading uphill through the middle of some gorse.
8.
In
the top corner of the field is a stile, cross over this and turn left onto a
lane for a few yards. On your right is a
small bridge which leads to a stile – cross over this and bear slightly left,
heading towards some telegraph poles.
9.
Once
across the field, cross over another stile and bear 45° right heading for a
squeezer stile in the hedge on the opposite side of the track. Pass through this and bear slightly left,
heading uphill following the line of the telegraph poles to reach a stile in a
hedge. Cross over this and bear slightly

Having
crossed the stile next to the gate, bear left to a squeezer stile, then go straight on to a stile in the fence opposite. Cross over this and head for another stile
beside a garage. Cross over this stile
and walk down the road. At the road cross over and turn left and after about 50 yards turn
right into a farm drive. Pass through
the farm heading for a wooden gate. Pass
through the gate onto a track with hedges on both sides.
11.
At
the top of a small rise, the track becomes hedged on the left and fenced on the
right. At the end of the fence you reach
a stile to the right of a gate. Cross
over this and cross the field with a hedge to your right. When you reach a metal gate, go through.
12.
Now
you start slowly descending, keeping the hedge to your right. When you reach a gap in the hedge, go through
continuing downhill, the hedge now on your left. The path turns into a track called “

this path and, where it bears right and becomes a track, you walk straight
ahead on a less obvious path, crossing the golf course. You pass the 12th tee on your left
and a banked green on your right, heading for a small clump of trees which you
walk straight through.
4.
At the end of
the golf course, just before a bridge crossing a river, turn right and walk
with the river to your left and golf course to your right. After about a quarter of a mile bear left and
cross a wooden bridge over the river, then bear right heading for a stile next
to a gate.

Turn left onto
the road and follow it through the village.
The road bends to the left and then slightly to the right before
reaching a crossroads – left to Killamarsh, right to Renishaw and Barlborough,
straight on to Park Hall. Go straight
across, heading up a lane towards the farm.
10. After about half a mile, where a lane goes off to the
right towards Park Hall, keep to the left fork, going straight on towards the
farm.
Here you will find Checkpoint 7.
1.
Go through the
farm and immediately after the farm turn left following the edge of a
field. Cross over a stile and bear

further half mile you will see a collection of old vehicles. Continuing straight ahead until you meet the
road next to a house.
4.
Cross over the
road and turn left, then right at the footpath sign which takes you up the
motorway service road. The road firstly
swings to the left and then to the right and after a further 200 yards you will
meet a footpath sign on your right. Here
turn right and follow the footpath with hedgerow on your right.
5.
The path starts
to descend until you meet a gate on your right.
Go through and turn immediately left.
Continue with hedgerow on your left for about 30 yards and then turn
