Derbyshire County Council say this about Archaeological Way: "Travel the Archaeological Way and you’ll be walking in the footsteps of history through a changing limestone landscape. The underlying geology of Permian Magnesian Limestone has helped create the landscape you see today. Grasslands, farmland and woodlands are crossed by small streams which carved gorges and vales, such as Creswell Crags and Pleasley Vale. Disused railway lines and old colliery sites are transformed into trails and country parks. Shirebrook Wood, Poulter and Pleasley Pit country parks are now havens for wildlife."
