Скачать или смотреть The Walk - EP 93 - The Lost Industries Of Derbyshire - Ashover, Fallgate & Milltown - Derbyshire

I'm joined by Phil as we take a circular walk around the stunning Amber Valley in Derbyshire.

The three picturesque villages of Ashover, Fallgate and Milltown were once industrial powerhouses, and Phil and I headed out to find the remains of that industrial past.

We start at Gregory Lead Mine, built in 1734 and once the most productive mine in the UK. A chimney still remains, as well as lead shafts and a mass of spoil heaps.

Then we're on to Overton Hall, once the home of Royal society head and Captain Cook explorer, Sir Joseph Banks, where Phil has an industrial history surprise for us.

Then we climb up to Fallgate quarry before dropping down towards to River Amber where we explore natural caves, the Ashover Light Railway, and hidden lime kilns. One of which we didn't even know was there, but stumbled upon.

From there we visit a blue lagoon quarry, Fallgate Mill, more remains of the Ashover Light Railway, more lime kilns, before finally coming across the remains of Fallgate station.

Built in 1925, and still standing firm.

So much to see on this explore. I hope you enjoy.
