Excerpt from Derbyshire: With Maps, Diagrams and Illustrations Derbyshire is an inland county near the centre of England bounded by Yorkshire, Cheshire, Staffordshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire. Its distance from the sea and the hilly nature of its surface made it for many centuries more or less inaccessible. Though mountainous regions have now a fascination for lovers of nature, there was a time when people looked upon them with horror and only fled to them for refuge from their enemies. A writer about 150 years ago thus records the experience of some travellers on horseback on their arrival at Dovedale Proceeding towards the edge of the plain, they came to a precipice of an astounding height from which was a stupendous view into a deep valley, the hills rising on the opposite side covered with wood nearly half a mile perpendicularly.
