The landscape around our workshop in the High Peak is well known for its gritstone hills, open moors and farmland. Despite its undoubted beauty, visitors these days might be surprised to know that this whole area was once a Royal Forest. Indeed, the name of our village \u2013 Chapel-en-le-Firth – roughly translates to \u201cchapel in the forest\u201d.<\/p>\n
Over the course of the last millennia, much of the natural woodland which once peppered the area has been lost. Now, however, the trees are making a comeback and we\u2019re doing our part to ensure a more leafy future for the Peaks.<\/p>\n
