Castleton is a village in the High Peak of Derbyshire. It lies near the mines where the mineral named Blue John can be found and below the site of Peveril Castle. We had intended to visit the latter but when we got there we found it is high up on a hill and didn’t really have the time to climb up to it.

Castle from village:-

From where we parked. The Castle lies behind a small group of trees. The quarry-like cliff below it is called the Devil’s Arse. I assume it leads into a cave since it is also called the Peak Cavern.

Hills above Castleton:-

At least two of the shops in the village were selling jewellery made from Blue John, a misleading name since it’s more of a purple colour. The stuff isn’t cheap.:-
