That's Steep Hill The white bar is up the mega steep bit. There's a good sweet shop that sells kola kubes around there. Useless fact after useless fact

Never a useless fact where those sweets are concerned. Haven't seen them in years anywhere.

I wonder why they call Steep Hill Steep Hill?

It took me 22 years to work it out

Hi everyone, as an amateur photographer i love heading out to places with wildlife and spectacular views. Now, other than places like the obvious such as Bradgate Park, is there anywhere you good people can suggest that might be worth visiting?

We seem to be somewhat limited here in Leicester for places like this. I know Derbyshire has the Peak District and all that, but very little around our area, that i'm aware of anyway.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers.

Hmmmmmmm - you sure this is not a pretense to find dogging sites?

So, what do you expected to see in the East Midlands ?

Sydney Opera House, ? The hanging gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the Serengeti ?

Hi Miket T, a place or places i suggest is Buxton, oor the Derbyshire dales, there is some amazing land scenery, i take the local transpeak bus to derby and some of the views that you see on the bus are quite simply breath-taking, if you got a day or so free you could always try there Hope this helps a bit buddy

I used to go to Derbyshire alot with my parents when i was younger as my mum used to live there, but never had the chance for photo opportunities. Thanks for the idea mate. It's a good one.
