Continuing to Burbage Rocks, you'll encounter impressive gritstone edges.

The edge provides panoramic views of the surrounding countryside before descending towards Strines Reservoir. Dale Dike Reservoir to Low Bradfield The route continues past Dale Dike Reservoir, infamous for the 1864 dam failure. Walking through this area gives insight into the local geology that influenced the reservoir's construction. Low Bradfield, a small village, marks the next waypoint.
