Small Kingsley Loop — Woodland Edges, Valley Views & Quiet Moorland Charm
A gentle circular walk from Kingsley through rolling farmland and woodland edges, with sweeping views across the Churnet Valley. A peaceful countryside escape in the Staffordshire Moorlands, perfect for photographers and slow walkers seeking space and fresh air.
Two Views of the Veil Nebula
Two interpretations of a cosmic relic — the Veil Nebula captured in both classic Hubble colours and the modern Forax palette. One reveals familiar ionised gas tones in deep blues and fiery reds; the other reimagines the supernova’s delicate filaments in teal, gold, and magenta. Together, they showcase the timeless beauty of a dying star’s remnants through contrasting artistic and scientific visions of the night sky.
The Roaches Circular Walk – A Peak District Classic
A rugged loop across The Roaches, where gritstone edges rise like ancient guardians above the Staffordshire Moorlands. This circular hike traces weather-worn paths, windswept heather, and sweeping valley views — a landscape shaped by geology, legend, and wild beauty. With every step you move between crags, quiet woodland, and open sky, wrapped in the timeless stillness of this Peak District icon.
Walking to Thor’s Cave and Above the Valley
Carved by time and framed by towering limestone cliffs, Thor’s Cave rises from the Manifold Valley like something pulled straight from legend. Our walk winds through peaceful riverside paths before climbing into this dramatic cavern, where echoes tell stories older than history itself. Stepping back into the daylight, we continue up onto the valley rim — rewarded with sweeping views, quiet woodland trails and the wild beauty that makes this corner of the Peak District feel both ancient and alive.
