Froggatt Edge Stone Circle

Highlight • Monument

Froggatt Edge Stone Circle (also known as Stoke Flat) is a Bronze Age monument situated a little off the footpath. The monument stretches over several metres and comprises two layers, but many of the stones are now missing or damaged. That said, the spot feels alive with ancient spiritual energy and is situated in a stunning spot.

Beautiful view overlooking Grindleford, also a lovely secret spot for a quiet picnic 😍

White Edge

Highlight • Natural

Along White Edge is less-walked trail that runs parallel to the Curbar and Froggatt Edge trail. Adding this section to make a circuit walk gives you double the views and double the edges. What's not to like?

Big Moor Trig Point

Highlight • Natural Monument

A deviation to the trig point provides a great place to spot red deer across the expanse of Big Moor, with the redundant Barbrook Reservoir in the background. The UK's largest land mammal, the red deer is a favourite sight on Big Moor.

Sometimes, all you see of the stags (males) are the antlers sticking up above the heather. Along with the non-antlered hinds (females), in their russet-coloured coats, they blend in to the moorland. If you watch for a while, there are always more than first glanced.

The best way to see them is with binoculars; trying to get closer will only scare them away, and the best time of year to see them is during the rut (mating season), when stags battle to mate with the hinds.

White Edge

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Gritstone Edges were once extensively quarried for their rough, coarse stone. Remnants of discarded round millstones can be found around the edges, giving the stone its common name, millstone grit. Many corn and textile mills were sited here.

Big Moor Stone Path

Highlight • Natural

Big Moor is known for being a place where you could be lucky enough to spot an adder.

The adder is the UK's only venomous snake; rarely dangerous, but please treat with respect. These cold-blooded reptiles can be seen basking on spring and summer days, warming themselves in the sun. Identified by the zigzag pattern down the middle of the back, they usually move away when they hear you coming.

Calver Weir

Highlight • Structure

Calver Weir was built in the 19th century to provide water to power Calver Mill, a little further down the River Derwent. These days, the Grade II-listed structure is a prominent feature on the river and is home to much wildlife, especially birdlife. In summer, many people swim and paddle in the weir. The section of trail from the weir to Calver is very picturesque and a pleasure to stroll along.
