Great HucklowGreat HucklowGreat Hucklow is a charming, peaceful little village set under Hucklow Edge in splendid countryside. Off the beaten track 6 miles north of Bakewell in the Derbyshire Peak District, the road up through Great Hucklow passes by some charming stone houses leading to the lofty Edge and some fabulous viewpoints.A small former lead mining village that holds some indication of prehistoric origins, situated close to the Iron Age fort of Burr Tor. Lead mining was once an important industry here and there is evidence of this in the surrounding fields. Today, fluorspar, a bye product discarded by old lead miners as waste, is extracted on a large scale providing work for local people. Camphill, near Hucklow Edge is home to the Derbyshire and Lancashire Gliding Club, founded in 1934. Spectators are admitted to the viewing enclosure and a car park and other amenities are provided for. In the summer months the club runs courses for people wishing to sample the sport.
