Batham Gate Derbyshire Map

About Batham Gate

Batham Gate rests on the high ground, a scattering of stone houses against the vast Derbyshire sky. It lies 3.7 km north-east of Buxton (from Buxton: bearing 36°T, OS grid SK 079 761), and is situated west-south-west of Peak Dale village. The air here carries the scent of peat and damp earth, a fragrance that clings to the hardy sheep grazing on the surrounding moors. Traces of its Roman past, the ancient track of Batham Gate itself, still whisper beneath the turf, a faint echo of legions marching across this exposed landscape. The light often falls in broad, clear swathes, illuminating the rough-hewn stone of the dwellings and the resilient green of the pastures. Even on a blustery day, there's a sense of steadfastness to Batham Gate, a quiet endurance honed by centuries of wind and weather.
