Interesting and fair comment, thanks for taking the time. The RAF dump was something I read online but trust the word of a local more. What are the local thoughts on the turfa? This is obviously a bit of a problem.

@@brewswithviews Firstly let me thankyou for replying...You are correct with the RAF using part of Hoffman quarry to believe it or not burn chemical waste but the practice was short lived and the quarry was not closed down until 1952 and the Blue Lagoon was not flooded till after this...The main storage was under the vast tunnels which later after the forces removed apparently all munitions became the Mushroom factory and then Christian Salvesen as a huge warehouse which incidentally was where my wife worked when I met her 40 years ago...Two of my Aunties used to work in the Mushroom factory and I remember them telling me that those tunnels were haunted, sadly they have both died as well as my dad but their dad my grandad was a stone mason who helped build the original tunnels...I said earlier that all munitions were moved apparently but a friend of mine who was walking in the area was shocked when his son found a grenade and actually threw it at his dad...Bomb squad was called in and yes the grenade was live but luckily the detonator had corroded...this was about 30 years ago...The trouble is now that HSE has taken over the area which was known as Mines Research and is under very tight government security and High Peak Council does not have a say about the sludge coming from the Embankment only their feeble efforts to deter swimmers at Hoffman Quarry which will never deter visitors...sadly it is something we have to live with and probably another reason why Buxton was not allowed to be part of the Peak National Park...Cheers Les.🙂 👍

@lespickering5080 oh wow, a live grenade. That's crazy. Its amazing what could be found in these areas now I suppose. Thanks for commenting, appreciate the support.

@@brewswithviews You are so welcome...Your Channel is really good and I am slowly getting through your vids...My son and I used to have a channel called High Peak Cinematography which we sadly had to end cos of work and family commitments but all the vids we made that you have visited some of are on a playlist on my channel called Peak Memories...Now I have retired my project is to visit every Peak District Town and village but the catch is I am only allowed to use my bus pass instead of driving to the places...I only really talked on the HPC vids cos I hate the sound of my voice and my channel is all my own music and a few classical Music covers along with my fave subjects including the new project...Like I said your channel is amazing and I love it...Carry on with the great work...Cheers Les.🙂👍

@pollybirnfeld hi, hope you have an amazing visit. If the house is closed you will only need to pay for the car park. Depending where you stay in Derbyshire there are buses that run into the car park. Probably best staying in Bakewell and catch the bus. Not sure the full details though.

@thebograt6810 thats true, everyone has different ability levels I guess. Castleton itself is a lovely little town. I do have some walks on the channel that are almost all flat. Worth checking those out too.

@rangakumudunee3927 no, I did it linear. There are circular routes if you wanted, just have look at some maps for footpaths.

I dont use pods as much now either, they're convenient but remove the art of brewing coffee.

@stigfloberghagenphotography thanks, it was awesome. It hasnt lasted though, hopefully we get more snow soon.

@brewswithviews 👍🙂

Didnt last long, back to cloud and rain again haha

Yes....I know Yondermann. Its a good call and didnt think about it at the time haha.

Thanks, its a beautiful spot. I'll check it out!

They are!

@emmahibbert4135 roads were fine, I was concerned about the road up the edge to the car park but it was clear. The Peak is amazing in the winter, my favourite time.

We have had a mild Autumn too, then just got hit with a snowbomb last week. Rain as soon come and got rid of it all now

@pgrifter29 you are correct, i got them mixed up 😅. The roaches is closer to home for me so I prepped that as a back up if the roads were bad, clearly was still in my head haha. Thanks for watching though

Honestly, I wouldnt know as I haven't done a side by side comparison. This is good at the price point.

Im by far the funniest UA-camr apparently

Maybe they should haha

Really appreciate that, thanks. Fingers crossed.

@paulcullen5015 thanks, have you been or plan on going?

@kathyfann big part of that depends on the actual pods you buy, some are better than others but none are as good as your local espresso bar.

@@SuburbanAdventures if so, they probably look like the three eyes fish on The Simpsons

Yes, I had so many mic issues this day it was unbelievable. Not a great day filming.

@C4sp3r123 thats really good to know, glad you had a good time and you enjoyed it. The watetfall is great and thanks for the feedback. I think the same with the fence, considering how concerned they were about it and how they spend money dying it black. They could easily do more to discourage it.

@ThomTopics being a local I guess you now the size of the problem. I literally saw 1 person walking a dog and thats it but I bet in summer it gets busy. I had such a nightmare filming this, wind issues with the drone, mic not working at times, falling down the hill 😅 i was fed up by the end so im glad I was able to edit it into something worth watching. Cheers.

@@brewswithviews one of those kind of days was it. Ceraintly dont want to risk loosing the drone over water due to the wind. Some years it is worse than others up there. As you saw it's generally fairly quiet if you are not there on a sunny day.

@CallOfTheDarkVideo yea its great. The pub is apparently haunted too, i would imagine a few spooky tales had a home here.

@EddieSkelson probably one of my favourite places to visit, go back every autumn.

@SuburbanAdventures you know it, it kept licking its lips in anticipation of eating me

Its a great spot, very atmospheric

@brewswithviews 👍

@ruveydaokur5060 right now its still mild so not too bad. I remember walking it start of December once and it was thick in snow so can get cold quickly

@@brewswithviewsThank you for your prompt reply! I like the video!

@PinoTanwan it was ordered from Temu and cannot recall the exact brand and checking my previous orders its just listed as Manual Coffee Grinder and its sold out. There are loads of others very similar on Temu though.

@andyowens-kirk8309 haha she did ok, she used be a right trooper a few years back but early teen syndrome has kicked in now. Glad you enjoyed the guide and its proved useful, best advice I can give is to get there early because the car park will soon fill up. Have fun.

I was surprised by how busy it was when we got there, even worse when we got back. An overflow was in use but you have pay £5 for that.

It was great, we had a group of americans in the ride with us and they were quite funny. One refused get out at the top as she was too scared.

@ I don’t blame her 🤣

You should hear me in general conversation with other locals haha. Neo is an ace piece of kit, i would recommend you using it to track your bike rides but it doesnt have collision avoidance and will end up in a tree.

@@SuburbanAdventures not that upstanding citizens like us need to hideout haha

No its not if you know where it is, like everything

@@SuburbanAdventures thats pretty accurate, great british weather for you I guess

@kellynicholls3132 not a personalised one but you can find this route on most apps. The route is very visable and signposted so you should be fine. Even better is do the route the other way, you can't miss the way up Mam Tor and its easy to find your way back into Castleton from there.

@@FunsizedAdventures 😅😅😅 i was definitely stewing

@CallOfTheDarkVideo yea...not sure how I missed it other than the fact ive never approached it from the rear, oh well, extra steps in atleast haha

@EddieSkelson 😅😅😅 honestly felt like it was going be a good day when I first set off.

Thanks, its a lovely little spot

@@brewswithviews Welcome.

@andrewshelley410 there is definetly treachery. I was on time constraints so couldn't go much further unfortunately

I imagine not many people disturbed you up there in the dead of night

Welll....maybe they should haha. Actually bought a new pair so hopefully they do ok haha
