Went today to an area where Victorian industry has disappeared leaving some very valuable wildlife habitats.
The remains of Millers Dale station on the old Derby-Manchester (Bakewell-Buxton really) railway line which was closed many years ago.
The station itself is now overgrown with lime-loving plants - about the only dale where these plants can be seen by people in wheelchairs because the railway line is now the fairly well-surfaced Monsal Trail.
The Trail links several nature reserves including the old quarry on the daleside which hosts many orchids, other plants, birds and insects.
