Leaving the car at the car park by Erwood Reservoir in the Goyt
Valley just outside Buxton we walked above Shooter's Clough to the
top of Shining Tor. It was a cold day and once on the tops, a very
strong wind was blowing, so we made use of a field wall to sit behind
for a snack and hot drink.
Continuing onwards, we followed the path paved with large slabs of
stone, being pushed around by the gale force wind, up and over Cats
Tor and down to the minor road at Pym Chair, again sitting behind a
wall to shelter from the wind and finish off our flasks of hot
drinks.
Then after following the minor road as far as a gate onto a
footpath over Foxlow Edge, again being buffeted by the strong wind,
we dropped down the path on the far side of Foxlow Edge to gain the
welcome shelter offered by the woods near the remains of Erwood Hall.
Soon we were back at the reservoir and the starting point at the
car park.
