View west to Over Owler Tor from Houndkirk Road

A walk on Houndkirk Moor 22

A cool morning with frequent showers, clearing to sunshine by the afternoon.

The southern portion of the Houndkirk Road offers fine views to the south and west into the heart of the Peak District. In the middle distance are the gritstone tors of Mother Cap Stone, just left of centre, and Over Owler Tor, to the right. Like Houndkirk Hill and Houndkirk Edge, these are composed of Namurian age ('Millstone Grit Series') Chatsworth Grit.

On the distant skyline are the high moorlands of the Derbyshire-Staffordshire border, beyond Buxton.
