Walk to Chelmorton

While passing through Bakewell on the way to the A6, we stopped for a while and I was naughty a bought a new rucksack in Cotswold Outdoors: an Osprey Talon 33. The theory that this lightweight rucksack would be more suitable for day walks in summer and also be small enough to carry on flights as cabin baggage.
Leaving the car near the entrance to the quarry on the A6 opposite the official car park, we walked past the quarry and old settling ponds dodging the luscious growth of nettles then followed a route thorough dales to Chelmorton.





Churn Hole
After a quick snack while sitting a on a bench in the village, we followed a different route which passed via a slippery descent next to Churn Hole.
