Walk Name Alport and Derwent
Description From Fairholmes we walk up Lockerbrook before heading down to the river Ashop. After walking along the river we head towards the farm and up a fairly steep hill to the impressive Alport Castles. Then back down a fairly steep path to the dams walking along on the footpath past Howden and Derwent before we return back to the start.
Some very steep climbs and descends

Get there early as Fairholmes can often be busy.
