Start at Shepherd's Wheel a working Cutler's grinding wheel powered by water. See breeding Vandstær and Bjergvipstjert in an urban setting, Spætmejse, Træløber, Stor Flagspætte, Grønspætte, Gransanger, Munk, Natugle, plus wintering Vindrossel, Sjagger, Kvækerfinke and Stor Skallesluger. Very popular but with easy conditions underfoot as you gradually rise to the source of the Porter Brook on the edge of the Peak District with stunning views back down onto Sheffield.
