Hen Cloud
The Roaches from Hen Cloud
and now looking back to Hen Cloud from The Roaches
looking the other way
playing with new Ultra Wide lens. Care was taken to not get my feet in the shot
Doxey Pool is apparently bottomless and has a ghost in it. Best not to take a dip then.
Trig Point on The Roaches
I've seen these in fish tanks but then the Peak District was once below a tropical sea
Geordie exploring
Much easier to find Lud's Church when coming from The Roaches
One of the two entrances to Lud's Church from this end
I prefer the narrower entrance
I considered laying off the cakes when squeezing through this section
A bit wider now. Even Georide can get through.
Looking up the sheer wall
Lud's Church feels like the entrance to a hidden kingdom
boggy section
the exit
Taking the track out the top of Forest Wood put us onto this path leading back to The Roaches
Geordie leading the way back
The Roaches and Hen Cloud
Geordie posing and Tittesworth Reservoir in the distance
We took the track down to the climbers area above Rockhall
Continuing along the path towards Hen Cloud
approaching the end of our walk
turning right here lead us back down to the cars
