StarDisc

Reviewed By Rutland_Jim

This is a free attraction, basically a sculpture at the top of a hill overlooking Wirksworth and surrounding areas that shows the constellations within the circle. Set above a woodland park which is great for dog walking complete with fire pit (children loved lighting a fire here) and several sculptures to explore in the old quarry. After dark, the benches around the edge of the stardisc illuminate with small red LEDs which are charged by solar PV during the day. Great spot for a picnic.

Thorpe Cloud

Reviewed By Lex8787 - Huntingdon, United Kingdom

A little too challenging for younger children or the elderly to go to the top, but there are plenty of easier routes around the base which still give great views of the scenery. Well worth the effort to get to the top if you’re up to it, stunning views in every direction.

Just to say the Car park was closed due to antisocial behaviour recently ! You can still walk onto the site through footpaths .
