Tunnel of Love
Chee Tor No.1 and No.2 Tunnels on the Monsal Trail near Buxton, Derbyshire.
The Monsal Trail cycleway follows a section of the former Manchester, Buxton, Matlock and Midlands Junction Railway, built by the Midland Railway in 1863 to link Manchester with London.
The line was closed in 1968 by the Labour Minister for Transport Barbara Castle, not as it is often thought by the Beeching Axe.
The Trail runs for almost 9 miles from Coombs Viaduct, 1 mile south-east of Bakewell to Topley Pike junction, 3 miles east of Buxton.
