Climbing Topley Pike
The 13:07 Briggs ICI headed by 66056 slogs its way up the grade from Buxton to Great Roads on the 13:07 Dowlow Briggs Sdgs to Ashbury SS. The scene of the river at the bottom of the valley looks quite idyllic and the bridge of the Millers Dale to Buxton branch is clear to see, possibly the only bridge crossing the river in the area where the view from below is not marred by trees.
The cycle hire 'shop' on the bottom left is getting ready for reopening next week after lockdown, although I guess they may have been closed for the winter.
