Cowdale Derbyshire Map

About Cowdale

Cowdale rests in a fold of Derbyshire's High Peak, a place where the land slopes gently towards the chalk streams. It lies 2.8 km east-south-east of Buxton (from Buxton: bearing 116°T, OS grid SK 082 719), and is situated east-north-east of Harpur Hill village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth and wild garlic, a subtle perfume from the surrounding limestone uplands. Smallholdings and scattered dwellings mark Cowdale, a quiet testament to generations who have worked this rich, fertile ground. The faint murmur of water, perhaps from the eponymous dale's stream, provides a constant, low melody to the landscape. Here, the light can fall with an almost liquid quality across the green fields, catching the dew like scattered diamonds.
