Where to go
Sightseeing
With over 15 miles of footpaths and a 19th century cotton mill set in the middle of the valley this is a lovely, picturesque place to visit. The river walk to the Mill is the most impressive but can be pretty slippy on wet days, there is an easier route along the gravel road which also leads to the Mill and the café.
