| 707 Ramshaw Rocks | |
Rocks that take on human form are nothing new, but above the Leek to Buxton road there's a face that winks at you! This is one of the most dramatic skylines in the Peak with the jagged Ramshaw Rocks ridge thrusting upwards like a row of fangs.
 LOCATION: Eight miles south of Buxton START: Turn right off A53 beyond Ramshaw Rocks, by Rocks Bar cottage, along an unsigned lane to layby just after the bend. (Grid ref 017620) DISTANCE: Three miles GRADE: Moderate, but some quite rough and boggy walking. TIME: Two hours MAP: Explorer OL - White Peak Landranger 119 NOTE: The winking eye is seen when driving from Leek to Buxton. REFRESHMENTS: Pack a flask
