T is for Tissington Trail
A sunny stroll along the Tissington Trail...
Running 13 miles from Parsley Hay in the North to Ashbourne in the south, the Tissington Trail occupies the former track bed of the London and North Western Railway (LNWR). The line ran between Buxton and Ashbourne and was first opened in 1899.
Following the closure of the line around seventy years later, the Peak District National Park bought the route in 1971 and turned it into a traffic free trail for walkers and cyclists.
We just couldn’t visit Ashbourne without stopping by the fabulous House of Beer for some refreshments.
