Upper End Derbyshire Map

About Upper End

Upper End, a quiet cluster of dwellings, breathes the clear air of the High Peak. It lies 4.4 km north-east of Buxton (from Buxton: bearing 48°T, OS grid SK 090 760), and is situated south-east of Peak Dale village. The landscape surrounding Upper End is a gentle sweep of limestone pasture, where the sky seems to stretch further and the light holds a particular, pearly quality on clear afternoons. A faint scent of damp earth and wild thyme often drifts in on the breeze, a reminder of the land’s long agricultural past. The stone walls that delineate the fields, built with a patient, enduring skill, seem to hum with the quiet stories of generations who have worked this ground. There are no grand pronouncements here, only the understated beauty of a place where human endeavour has long been in quiet conversation with the enduring character of the Peak District.
