146: Ashford-in-the-Water and Monsal Head (Peak District 2021)

PEAK DISTRICT WALK FEATURING ASHFORD-IN-THE-WATER AND MONSAL HEAD

"Ashford-in-the-Water and Monsal Head”
Filmed 18th April 2021
Post-production completed 4th July 2021

I was always going to revisit the locations featured in this film at some point, both of which were seen in a couple of my much earlier, longer films, pre-HD quality days.

I was really looking forward to returning and making a film of a walk in these locations, particularly as one of them is my personal favourite spot in the Peak District.

Filmed in the Peak District in the county of Derbyshire. Locations include Ashford-in-the-Water, Monsal Head, Upperdale, Monsal Dale, Deep Dale and Great Shacklow Wood.

Written, researched, directed, camera and sound, edited and music by Patrick Leach.

Special thanks to Dennis and Jan Kelsall, Ashford-in-the-Water Parish Council and Visit Peak District and Derbyshire for their helpful information used in my research for this film.

"The Solitary Rambler" is my series of amateur films of my journeys in the countryside accompanied by my own musical scores, which I compose and perform on my Yamaha keyboard.

Please note that, as with all the films I make, this is not actually intended to be an extensive guide to the area. This is a mini-movie of my personal journey along the walk, in which I often share some of my own personal stories.

If you are new to my YouTube channel, I strongly recommend reading the description on the home page, which will provide a clearer understanding of what to expect in my films:    / solitaryrambler  

There is also a short “Introduction to the Solitary Rambler” video, which briefly explains what my films are all about:    / solitaryrambler

Many thanks and I hope you enjoy watching!
