The beauty of the modern Peak District makes it a favourite haunt of walkers and climbers, but for centuries the region was one of England's most significant areas of quarrying and lead mining. With archive photographs showing the processes involved, this book provides a record of the Peak District's industrial heritage from Roman times to the much-reduced quarrying operation which continues today.
