Excellent!!!

For example, in the first edition, one walk was at the top end of Saddleworth Moor nearest town: Oldham and this time there are two up that way.

This is not a criticism as, obviously, not everyone buying the book lives where I do and, hopefully, some people will see it, buy it and use it when they come to the area on holiday and they could be based anywhere in the Peak District. Bob Steel is not local to Derbyshire and his first pub walks book was around London, so very different in terms of terrain and pubs. But he is a geographer by trade and his love of this area is evident. Like the best guide books, too, it digresses just enough to make it more interesting. Bob adds panels on local history and local geography where he feels the need.

Travel information is often included. There is an excellent article included by Derbyshire-based writer Andrew McCloy on the decline in pub numbers. I have tried to avoid establishments where the drinker is sidelined or made to feel unwelcome in comparison with diners. This is not a book about restaurants! Stephen Bere is listed as the designer of both editions, 10 years apart. I never had a problem with the first one: But the design of the new edition is better still. Six miles, starts in Cromford, treks over to Lea, down to Holloway and back to Cromford adjacent to the railway line.

A great one for history lovers with Cromford Mills included.

Indeed, even the ales and lagers here have a local flavour, brewed just 10 miles away by Shepherd Neame in Faversham. A warm welcome awaits. With a name like The Shakespeare, you would expect nothing less than great British fare Formal tastings with a sommelier can also be booked.

Receive a free meal on your birthday, every year! Very friendly and helpful service. Very attentive and nothing too much trouble. Good advice on different beers and lagers and what would go with food order. The food was excellent, well cooked and presented. No need to go to the bar as additional drinks brought to table.

Overall a really great experience in a historic city centre venue. The first night impressed that we ate there the following day. The wine bar also very pleasant with great staff.
