Calver Mill
This is a magnificent building. You can see two stair towers here at each end - doubtless an original feature. The two ground level archways that probably led to waterwheels are not visible from this low angle. These wheels were probably superseded by the later pair in the detached wheel-house. This is my personal guess - facts are always welcome.
This mill is very well screened by trees and unimpeded shots are very hard to come by. This view entailed much risky scrambling amongst prickly undergrowth and driftwood by a fast flowing river.

Imposing 6 storey textile mill of 1803-04 that replaced an earlier mill of 1785. The wheelhouse on the left dates from 1834 and housed a pair of water wheels of 80 hp each. Now converted to apartments and secure behind electric gates.

Holiday chalet at Calver
This small hut is more reminiscent of a seaside beach hut than anything else and seems out of place in the corner of a field. Behind the hut is the woodland along the river Derwent and behind that is Curbar Edge.
