Parsley Hay Derbyshire Map

About Parsley Hay

Parsley Hay breathes the wide, open air of the Peak District, its low stone walls a humble acknowledgement of the vast limestone plateau stretching in every direction. It lies 8.5 km south-west of Bakewell (from Bakewell: bearing 235°T, OS grid SK 147 636), and is situated south of Monyash village. The quiet lanes here carry the faint scent of sheep and damp earth, a subtle perfume under a sky that often shifts from brilliant blue to a brooding grey in the space of an afternoon. Parsley Hay’s modest cluster of dwellings seems less built upon the land than to have emerged from it, their grey stone mirroring the ancient, weathered rock of the surrounding hills. The very light feels different here, sharper and more defined, illuminating the sparse beauty of the upland landscape with an almost stark clarity. Though small, Parsley Hay possesses a quiet permanence, a sense of enduring presence against the ceaseless, gentle sculpting of the wind and rain.
