Hockerley Derbyshire Map

About Hockerley

Hockerley rests lightly on the Derbyshire landscape. It lies 0.7 km north-north-west of Whaley Bridge (from Whaley Bridge: bearing 334°T, OS grid SK 008 820), and is situated south-west of Bridgemont village. The air here, carrying the damp breath of the Peak District, often holds a soft, diffused light, as if the sky itself is a pearl. Fields, stitched together with dry-stone walls, climb the gentle slopes, hinting at the old patterns of husbandry. The houses of Hockerley, mostly modest dwellings, seem to absorb the quietude of the surrounding hills. There's a sense of quiet resilience in the very stones, a feeling of being part of a landscape that has seen centuries unfold.
