Very much part of the same issue - the Peak District National Park has put the Roaches up for sale. Was discussed in yesterday's edition of Countryfile with Matt Baker sounding the alarm for a place he clearly loves.

Yes I enjoyed that June, nice bloke Matt Baker. £200,000 didn't seem much (if you've got it that is!!) Just a question for all...he mentioned the rocks being gritstone. Is this a very hard stone, like how would it compare to the Wiltshire sarsen for instance? Many monuments in that neck of the woods built with it?
