CW: Right-wing gatherings Sat 3 Aug inc Nottingham
Just heard about this. I'm thinking of going over to Belper Pride, so I actually _was_ thinking of being in town, due to heading for the railway station. But maybe that would be earlier than this lot & then not back till they'd gone? As long as there's not gonna be more of them over in Belper! But I'm hearing it's the big cities. Hmm.

If you are in reasonably easy #rail travel distance of #Derby, there is a local line that goes up the #Derwent Valley (#UNESCO World Heritage Site) between Derby and Matlock with a decent service and all stations offering good walking right off the platform.
The station at #Whatstandwell (yes, it is a place) backs straight onto the #Cromford #Canal, a 6 mile strech of isolated remnant canal, from which you can either head SW towards #Ambergate, or NE to Cromford and the #historic mills. Lots of other interesting stuff along the route, including High Peak Junction, the western end of the High Peak Trail with it's famous Incline.
#Matlock and Matlock Bath are also good towns to walk around, as is #Belper at the southern end of the valley, again with more historic mills adjacent to the River Gardens
