Walking West out along the ridge from the Mam Nick road, the path rises after just over 1km to the Lord's Seat barrow. Stick to the path on the crest of the ridge for the best views - Edale to your right, Mam Tor behind, Windy Knoll to your left and the barrow itself looming up ahead. Well worth the effort.

The barrow came by the name the Lord's Seat, as it was here that William Peveril, he of Peveril Castle fame, sat and watched the Peak Forest chase. stubob Posted by stubob
