Highlight • River

Apparently, it is the only village with a canal alongside the main street!
Commercial Hotel is recommended, located next to the main street (and canal) with a small sitting area …

Pennine Way Trail, Peak District National Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great flow-y track to begin with, then gets abit technical in places - finishes off with a nice fire type road down into Marsden. Definitely worth it to go down, rather than up!
