Walk Name The Valley of the Demon: Thursbitch
Description A walk to the west of Buxton visiting a disputed chapel, an enigmatic memorial stone, and the bleak ruins of a farmhouse in an atmospheric valley that all forms a portal connecting tormented lives across space and time of the 18th and 21st centuries - if you believe Alan Garner's book, Thursbitch. Get your shaman on!
One steep descent and one steep ascent - bring poles if you need them.
Some cracking views from the highest point in Cheshire - over the Cheshire plain and even to Manchester city centre on a good day.
