Parsley Hay

Parsley Hay was formerly the junction between the Buxton to Ashbourne line and the Cromford and High Peak line. It closed to passengers in 1954 and goods in 1967. It is now a key location on the Tissington and High Peak cycle trails that follow these scenic old rail routes and a modern cafe serves the needs of the many cyclists who use them. View along the trackbed showing the line following the hillside towards Buxton. I believe this photo was taken from the same spot as John Thorn's 1963 picture See image 26102, but facing the opposite direction and the modern cafe occupies the goods yard.
