The Weir with Bakewell's 5 arched 13c stone bridge in the background.
Heading out of town, past the Agricultural Centre.

No idea why this huge stone wall and gateway was built in Burnt Wood.
Crossing the stream that separates Burnt Wood and Rowsley Wood.
Looking over Rowsley, the meeting point of the River Wye and the River Derwent.
Bluebells in Lees Moor Wood.
Looking across Lower Lathkill Dale to Stanton Moor, a place we visited last October.
