Baslow Edge - Birchen Edge 31/08;2025

 Anne was volunteering on the Bee Keeping / Honey stall at Chatsworth Country fair, so I went along as a paying customer. We had a couple of hours looking around the show together before her shift started, at which I went off for a walk.

Same route as last time I was here. :-

  • Out of the park to Baslow
  • Up the hill (Bar Road)
  • Baslow Edge
  • Birchen Edge
  • Robin Hood pub
  • Back in the top edge of the estate.

As I got near to the estate I could hear gunfire which was clay pigeon shooting. dropping down to the show I was stopped by a show volunteer who informed me that I was trespassing in the firing range. Apparently there should have been signs on the entrances at the top end of the estate. After I explained there were no signs he let me in over the fence.





Weather was perfect for walking. About 8 miles. After all the walking within the show, my step count for the day was a few hundred steps short of 40,000.
