FOLKS
A BOOK OF PEAK DISTRICT FOLKTALES
High on the heather moors, nestled under the bracken, is a story. A story which has travelled through gorse and peat, crags and dales, mills and mines. Spun by thread spinners. Quarried by Millstone makers. This is a land of gritstone gods, moorland ghouls & Derwent spirits.
These are the tales of the Peakland folk.

“And yet it does one good to get into this upland, age-long solitude, where the primeval world is felt to be a mighty fact, linked on to us. The spirit of the moors has his throne on Back Tor.”
— John Derry; Across the Derbyshire Moors (1926)
