Sunken way

20 Oct 2008 219
It's all Eagle1942's fault. Every time I go out and about in the hills I find myself looking for old routeways hiding in the landscape. This particular sunken way lies between Hacked Way Lane and Buxton Old Road and is seen looking northwards towards Lamaload reservoir which lies in the valley to the right of the distant woodlands. Although now boggy and filled with rushes this route must have seen the passage of thousands of feet and hooves to have created such a deep gulley. I wonder how old it is and where they were all going?
