Take some time to appreciate the backdrop.
The dramatic red sandstone escarpment with picturesque views and old copper mines are the stuff of ancient, as well as modern legend.
It is even said that Alderley Edge is the place where King Arthur’s Knights slumber in wait for the day that they will have to defend England.
‘There will come a day when these men awake from their enchanted slumber and will descend the plain, decide the fate of a great battle and save their country. This shall happen when George the son of George shall reign.’
Gold was discovered here in the 190s, but unfortunately for us – none has been found since!
