Two of our walks leaflets are released so that you can explore the places shaped by the Dukesfield lead industry.
Dukesfield Arches & Devil’s Water walk meanders through the riverside and valley around the former lead smelting mill. There’s a 6 mile route, with a 4 mile shorter option, to follow to uncover some of the historic industry that flourished here.
Allen Valleys walk – in the footsteps of the miners takes you along the carriers ways and to some of the relics of mining life among the breathtaking views in the high hills of the North Pennines.
