Winnats Pass
Winnats Pass is a route down to Castleton between towering limestone cliffs. According to legend the gorge is haunted on stormy nights by two young lovers who eloped in 1758. Henry and Clara were murdered my lead miners as they travelled to Peak Forest to be married. :-(

The King Stone
The King Stone stands a few metres outside The Nine Ladies stone circle on Stanton Moor. Unfortunately the stone has been vandalised. The graffiti reads
Bill Stumps. :-( Modern Druids leave regular offerings at the centre of the circle. A pentacle and blood are the most recent.
