Dist:0.1km<br/>Crags from which a love-struck local would have plunged to her death in 1762, were it not for her billowing petticoats. Seen from The Dale. http://www.derbyshireuk.net/stoney.html

Dist:0.3km<br/>Dominating the terrace of cottages now a restaurant called Little India at Lovers Leap. The name of the cliff is usually spelt (as I have done) without an apostrophe. This is particularly wrong in this case as there was only one leaper in the story which has lead to the name. A certain Hannah Baddeley is said to have survived a jump from the edge in 1762.
