The Peak District (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Peak District Throughout the year this valley never fails to suggest a foreign country: in the blackness of mid winter one might believe oneself in Norway; in spring and summer one is curiously reminded of Switzer land; in autumn, when the foliage glows marvellously, one might be looking upon some fanciful picture done by a southern painter with a passion for vivid colour. To the right flows the Derwent, with clear waters tranquil before the crossing of a white weir, or churning merrily between great boulders.
