Maisie and I take a different direction this morning - down the little footpath at the end of the Grove Road bungalows (built as holiday homes in the 20's?) and round past The Crown and up Penny Lane towards Strawberry Lea (hey - I hear a song coming on...). Then curve off and round the beautifully cobbled footpath past the old Chapel. According to local historian Brian Edwards, a man called Marriot Fox laid these setts in 1946. What care he took! The stone squeezer is a real Derbyshire feature.
