Here's a beautiful reminder of summer to brighten your day! You'll find this stunning rose garden at Hopton Hall, on the edge of the Derbyshire Peak District. It's a truly special place to stay - they have five stunning holiday cottages, a swimming pool, a fabulous children's play area, a picnic and BBQ area ... and acres of THOSE gardens, which are wonderful in all weathers and all seasons.

❓Here’s your regular fun Sunday afternoon picture quiz - “Where in the Peak?” are we?!
No prizes, but plenty of kudos to the person with the first correct answer!
Where would you find this unusual church, looking more like a Roman villa?

If you have ever wondered how Derbyshire clouds are made, here is the answer...
They start, by looking for a paragliding hillside. Mam, Tor, Lords Seat, etc.
Love it! The cloud-making machine! 😍
Stunning xx
Stunning photo 😊

Awesome
I call this tree the tree of life, my favourite tree in the whole of the peak district. Its simply spectacular in any season , you may have seen it as you drive through the chatsworth estate as you go past carlton leees car park and around 200 metres further up the hill towards the house.... 🙂
Yes, I love the trees at Chatsworth, especially the ones with the flat bottom 😁
Beaut tree. Looks frosty there or dewy .great photo
A great shape. Good pic as usual Jim
The tree How a tree changes and alters shape, it helps fine scenery to make, In winter it’s woody charms, branches like skeletal arms, Spring with warm life giving rain, will swell the buds again, In summer it tells a different story, leaves and flowers show its glory, Autumnal colours russet and browned, it’s leaves carpet the ground, Oh how dull would it be, without the beauty of a tree, The horizon punctuated by its shape, fine scenery does make. Les Hopton
It’s a beautiful tree 🌿🌿🌿
An amazing picture 🙂
❤️ I have an album dedicated to trees I like, can be, size, shape, colour, leaves or no leaves.
Beautiful tree.
see the tree how big its grow......
Christine Murray Thought you would like this. Lots of beautiful photos on this page. Xx 🌳
Beautiful. I must admit I also love the rainbow tree. I know it's a sculpture, but it's truly wonderful.
You could produce a Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn set of framed or un-framed prints. They’d sell well with people who have long expanses of blank wall. I’d love some myself but the postage to Colorado would put them out of my ball park.
I know exactly where it is!! I have almost driven off the road many a time staring at it in Awe...It is a perfect shape and in autumn it is spectacular!!!!!!
What a lovely picture!
It is the most beautiful Tree!! I wonder how old it is? What changes it must have seen? And what story's it could tell? I love trees and feel quite emotional when I see them being cut down!!!! They are after all a living thing!!!! 🌳🌲🌿 xx
Wow that’s beautiful. I will look out for it xx
A beautiful tree.😍😍😍
Beautiful tree, with or without leaves, 😊
It really is lovely
It still has autumn leaves on as of today
❤️
Looks like a peacocks tail

With a name that dates back to the 13th century and meaning 'stream', Strines is perhaps a lesser known part of the Peak District. It's a large area with various reservoirs, woodlands and moorland. Its boundaries, roughly, are the A57 to the south, the A628 to the north, Sheffield to the east and Derwent to the west. Along Sugworth Rd you'll find this little gem: Boots Folley. A rather simple, unassuming, square tower - but it stands there proudly. If you want to get up and close and personal, there's a public footpath along Sugworth Hall that leads to the field it sits in.
📷 Pete Simons letsgopeakdistrict.co.uk/peter-simons-photography/
If you’re interested in exploring this lovely part of the Peak District, this walk takes in many of the fabulous moorland views around Strines Reservoir and also Dale Dike Reservoir. letsgopeakdistrict.co.uk/bradfield-and-dale-dike-reservoir-walk-5-3-miles/
Fantastic photo but not part of the peaks that I know anything about
Thanks for the lovely view
Fantastic shot, lovely mix of colours 😊
Lovely pic. Not a part of the Peaks I'm familiar with.
Beautiful shot Pete. Love the autumn colours everywhere now.
Apparrantly there used to be stair inside Boot's Folley, so that you could get the view from the top - but one time a cow got in and climbed to the top, but could not get back down. So they removed the stairs.
I used to own Sugworth Hall, with my then husband.
Can it be climbed?
Chris Wilding one for a dry day..🙂

Isn't the Little Longstone Chapel gorgeous with its autumnal garland around the doors
Is this the one near Monsall head !? We went to a cycling hill climb on Sunday and I just stopped and stood looking at this place for ages . Gorgeous.
Lovely picture 🙂
I remember that and I went to look at the grave once with grandma. It is pretty.
Oh! Love this chapel. My great grandmother is buried there. Lovely memories. Always go and sign the register when I visit. Xxx

Today is world mental health day. I know for many people that life seems full of mist and tough times but I hope together we have made the odd darker time a little bit lighter with a smile. Big love to everyone who has had those moments in life, whats always a thought is its actually most of us have so you are not alone - pass round family and friends and have a little smile and feel good we are all part of the same gang xx.
