Hayfield, Derbyshire a village that gives walkers good access to Kinder Scout. In 1932 Kinder mass trespass started not far from the village, it was a protest about the lack of access to the open countryside for the common man. Hayfield once had a railway link with Manchester but unfortunately the branch line from New Mills was closed in 1970. The old track bed is now a footpath (The Set Valley Way).
