Walking Guidebooks for Derbyshire and the Peak District

In 1951 The Peak District was designated as Britain's first National Park. In the south are the gently rolling hills of the limestone White Peak, while to the north, west and east are the wild, heather-clad moorlands of the Dark Peak, famed (?) for its peat bogs, where moisture in the peat is trapped by the underlying millstone grit.
